Ok thanks everyone, very useful

Iv no reason to lie, I’d admit it if I made a mess of it- have done plenty of times in the past. I think it’s a case of him being more a commercial electrician than domestic work and clearly doesn’t work with central heating systems. He told me at the time he didn’t have the right wire so the...
