So the nice man from transco has just left having told me that the connection to the hob has a very small leak. :(
He has isolated it. Will be on the phone to the fitter tomorrow to get him back to fix it gratis!
Thanks again for the advice to call the emergency number.
Just come off the phone from Transco and the gas is now turned off.
Thanks for the speedy reply guys.
The joiner is a friend of mine so I know he did not do the gas work.
I guess we'll know pretty quick if there is a problem.
I'll let you know the outcome
I've recently had a new kitchen including a new gas hob fitted. It has been fitted with a fixed connection etc by a plumber that my joiner organised while I was on holiday. I think that there is the occaisional faint smell of gas although my wife doesn't think there is any smell.
I've also...
Thanks for the reply. I'll be seeing my joiner later today so I think I will just confirm with him that his mate is a Corgi. I wasn not there when the work was done but it certainly seems to all be in order.
Yes there is a fixed copper pipe. I just thought that given that you need to used an approved Corgi fitter they would need to supply a certificate to guarantee the works or something?
I've just had a new kitchen fitted with a new gas hob. My joiner organised the Gas Fitter to fit the hob.
Should have I received some sort of certificate for the gas work?
I live in Edinburgh so I wasn't sure if the regs where the sane here as in England and Wales.
Thanks in advance.

Doh! thanks for that you of course make perfect sense.
I assume I would need to put this switch before the transformer?
I ask becasue I had channelled in power cable to the top of the cupboards which is where I was going to put the transformer but I'm now thinking that if I need to put the...
Does anyone know if you can get a switch that I can easily add into a circuit for under cupboard lights in the kitchen? They are powered off the mains via a transformer and I've added a spur but am unsure about how to switch them on/off.
Any thoughts would be appreciated.
Does anyone have any more help for me on this? - see last post about how to use exiting double socket to feed chimney hood and under cupboard lighting.
Thanks
Mark
Thanks for the repsonse. I really appreciate the advice
So what would be the best way to feed both the hood and the lights off the exiting double socket? Do I replace the existing double socket with a jucntion box for the hood and under cupboard lights? But if so then how do I isolate them...
I checked the cabling last night and found that the double socket I describe does not come off the cooker feed. It must be spurred off the ring main. So my question about the spur extension still stands.
Can I plug in a cable that runs to a socket for the hood?
Hi guys,
I have a quick query. I've got a double socket in my kitchen that I think is spurred off the cooker switch which was feeding the old cooker hood and some under cupboard lighting. I would like to use this as a power source for a new hood and low voltage (via a transformer) under...
