My immersion heater stopped working recently. I measured 240V across the ends of the element so I knew the time switch and thermostat were OK. The immersion heater (a 14" Gold Dot) had been in the combi cylinder for at least 11 years. I got a plumber to remove it and found it had split along...
Traffic Wardens currently have hand-held scanners that they use to scan the barcode on the tax disc. I assume when the new system is in place they'll just type the vehicle registration number & make instead.
The general public can check whether a vehicle has insurance, mot & tax via...
Police can use automatic number plate recognition, internet connection or a walkie talkie to access the computer database as they do with insurance and MOT checks.
Being able to pay monthly by DD and not having to faff about with paper tax discs are both benefits to the vehicle owner.
I...
I don't think so because if you've been paying your tax annually you'll be able to get a refund for any full calendar months left on the tax period when you tell DVLA you no longer require tax.
If it's not a first registration vehicle you'll also be able to pay annually, every 6 months or...
It seems to be a common restriction on search engines, including Google.
I expect that to increase performance and reduce strain on the server, the forum search results here are generated and then temporarily cached. When your browser requests a page of results the software doesn't have to...
In February I recall reading an article which said the reason for not allowing transfer of vehicle tax was that without a paper tax disc, there is no way for a private motorist to know whether a vehicle is taxed or not, so there would be a high risk of sellers lying about how much tax was left...
I would have confirmed whether or not the slave chime goes ding-dong when you press the button when it's on it's own at it's remote location, before ordering a new transformer.
Don't use battery power and transformer power together.
I think you've either wired the slave chime incorrectly, or the slave chime is faulty, or there's a break in the wire somewhere between master and slave chimes.
I don't think two chimes would overload a 1A transformer. But if you...
In your case you can isolate the socket without removing the appliance and the fuse in the plug will protect the flex.
The only reason I can think of why your kitchen fitter is saying you can't use the existing socket is that there won't be enough space behind the appliance to accommodate the...
It's a circuit diagram from the manufacturer. It confirms what goes where & why.
The master bell in your picture is wired as per diagram 4b where one side of transformer output is connected to the bellpush via terminal 1 in the chime rather than direct to the bellpush.
