Thanks. The live wire I mentioned came from a 2 gang light switch that became faulty, so I replaced it with a one gang switch, I will need to wire that live cable back into the 1 gang switch I presume, into the 2 way port. The neutral, common and earth are being used from the switch I'm...

I've found the live wire, can that go into the junction box, then on to the switch. thanks

Hi.. Is it possible to install a light and switch from an existing light switch. I'm trying to extend the wiring from a light switch into a junction box and from the junction box to the new light switch but the supply keeps tripping. Basically, I'm using one supply to feed 2 switches, and...

Thanks Jackrae, that worked. :wink:

HELP !!!. I had some plastering done, the plasterer wrote the wiring on the board, then plastered over it !!. I have a light switch in the loft, which can also be controlled from the lower ground. There are 2 black wires and a red, and the switch has L1 L2 and a 1C port. Can anyone...

Ericmark. Thanks for the reply. The installation instructions say *** These products should be connected to the lighting circuit or fused at a maximum of 5A ***. Do you reckon I could pug it into a socket with a 5A fuse ?. regards

Hi.. Wonder if someone can help. I bought this light off ebay, and wanted to know if it's possible to plug it straight into a 13amp socket with a plug. The instructions say it should be wired into a lighting circuit...

Hi.... We've got a Chaffoteaux Britony 2T installed, which during the winter only gives warm water, even at maximum temperature. I changed the diaphram last year, even though it wasn;t damaged. Is it possible that the water is only warm because the pipes run under ground. The hot water pipe runs...

Hi... Thanks for the replies. is it possible to fill the gaps with expanding fire resistant foam. thanks

Hi... We have a Chaffoteaux boiler installed. Basically, I wanted to know how much room should there be on either side of the flue in the cavity, or should it be a tight fit, no space on either side of the flue. I do get hot water, but in the winter, the temp gauge has to be on near max, which...

Hi Guys The water I'm getting from the boiler isn't hot enough, its only just barely warm, even with the temperature gauge at Max. I read in the Corvec manual I found on the web that the Diaphram and / or thermocouple may need changing. I've tried to lower the water pressure, still the same...

Hi The burner ignites and the noise stops when the water main is turned off. thanks

Hi We can hear water flow in our Chaffoteaux Et Maury Britony 2 T, even though all the cold and hot water taps are closed. Any ideas. thanks

thanks for the replies. There are 2 sets of wires in the pull cord. 2 neutral and 2 earth. I posted a similar subject on here before, and was told to get the live from somewhere else, and use the neutral, switch live and earth from the ceiling rose. So basically, I need to find the...
