    Does a flexible WC pan connector fit directly inside a ring seal and/or solvent weld fitting?

    @Dan Robinson Thanks, so you can't put the flex pan connector into a ring-seal fitting, like this chap suggests?: It just has to go straight into 110m pipe itself?

    Does a flexible WC pan connector fit directly inside a ring seal and/or solvent weld fitting?

    Hi, please forgive the newbie question: Will a standard McAlpine Flexible WC Pan connector like this... ... fit directly into a ring seal connector.... and/or a solvent weld connector.... ...on a standard 110mm soil pipe? Or would I need to insert a cut piece of pipe inside each...

    Whats the best way to repair this crack?

    I have tried joint tape and skim but it cracks again. It looks as though the crack is in the brickwork rather than the plaster.

    What could cause this socket to burnout?

    @DetlefSchmitz So what are "the laws of physics" that cause a loose terminal to be a fire hazard? Im genuinely interested in learning about this.

    What could cause this socket to burnout?

    Thanks. Why does a loose terminal make it burnout? Isnt that a massive fire hazard?

    What could cause this socket to burnout?

    Context: i am painting and took this socket off the wall. It works but the inside looks burnt, i never noticed a problem before. What do you think has happened here? Could it be a bigger problem than just the socket?
