I’ll double check before and work takes place, if that not possible would taking the supply from the washing machine circuit be ok? Current setup for that supply is 16a Rcbo>2.5mm cable > double socket Opposed setup if possible 16a Rcbo > 2.5mm2 cable > Double socket > 2.5mm2 cable > FCU Co

The plan os to take it from the closest socket and then run the cable to the fcu what will supply the towel rail

I’m looking into fitting a 150w towel rail in our downstairs Toilet room. Can you simply spur off Ring main to supply the FCU? Many thanks

Hi if you throwing them away my wife runs a carehome and looking to get solar for their summer house so the resident can use it to it full potential I’m sure they be interested if your getting rid, would be happy to collect to if your not as million miles away

That’s a shame, I only asked as we are in the process with BG sorting It out ect

Just got off the online chat with BG And they supply and fit a isolation switch free of charge when installing a smart meter :)

I would of thought they would of install one as standard if your getting smart meter fitted, if they don’t want anybody “turn off” the meter by pulling the Dno fuse then why wouldn’t they?

thanks for your reply, the socket will used to connect our micro caravan up when it at home, mainly just to charge the 12v leisure battery up and to use the odd 700w heater.

Good evening Before I ask, if I need an Electrician then so it be it I’d rather do it via the book than not be safe. Anyhow I’m wanting to install an external socket down the side of our house, the most direct way to connect it up would to use the washing machine redial direct what goes from...

So it not notification then that why I thought, can I ask why it not? Strange I know but rather gather all information than a yes/no answer .... even thought the 16amp socket will be moved some distance away that doesn't matter?

my Garage has got a external 16amp blue socket what we used to plug the caravan van in my question is can I extend this outlet to the front of the house without getting into a electrician in as it will not be a new circuit ? It about 20meters away the babble will be above ground in conduit, the...

No it not a ring its a radial so I just spur it off the main supply what goes into the garage cu ?

Thanks for the reply Yes correct, better explained ! i do not have any spare space in the garage cu at all, both RCD's rated at 40amps so can't see that being a problem as it will not reach 40amp because of the main supply is only 32amp. Yes safety is the key and want to do thing...

Hi there Iv got a question what I can't find a answer to and wondering if you can help ? Please be nice or don't bother :) Iv had our new garage connect up to the main cu but now we need to add a 32amp commando socket outlet (for the new RV) we already the a 16amp for when our friends come...

So do I earth it? if I do earth it will I create a problem by make it a earthing point for everyone (make sense ??) what Iv thought about doing is bolting/screwing the unit to ply then screw the spike into the wood the metal spike won't be in contact with nothing inside of the unit just the ply
