Where I used to work we used the Pace MBTs,,, really good piece of kit for proffessional use; they are expensive, but IMHO you do get what you pay for and the parts will be available forever. It's no good buying something thats cheap with restricted or non existant availability of parts

I've had this happen twice on me a few years ago,, different dishwashers BTW Cables at the bottom of the door were either fractured due to their constant bending (opening & closing door) or were rubbing on the framework!!

This is a quote from the approved document P 2006 edition which I think could be helpful Page 9 k. The installation of prefabricated, “modular” systems (for example kitchen lighting systems and armoured garden cabling) linked by plug and socket connectors is not notifiable, provided that...

How about one of these? They also do hidden switches :wink: probably a :shock: price though.

IIRC i think you can get both dusk/dawn and dusk + x Hrs photocells... however if you want the light to come on at dusk and off at say midnight then connect the photocell supply and timeclock supply terminals to permanent live & neutral then the output through the timeclock terminals... set...

If you're doing lighting via plug/socket on a lighting circuit then I'd have thought that best practice would dictate round pin plugs & sockets?

You should really replace the busbar as it's more than likely over heated

Mine in bold Have a look at the ESC guidance, loads of good info in it!

I had some crimps that felt loose a year or so ago.. I found that it was the crimps (Pik a pak - or something like that) SWA crimps seem to hold solidly. I have a SWA crimper BTW

I did the 2391 in 4 1/2 days. Written exam on afternoon of 4th day and practical on following morning.. then 3 months wait for the results/certificate
