McDonalds? Nah! Don't eat that rubbish! I prefer good pub grub. If it's still standing of course!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :lol:

you`ve only had 6 years to get the story straight. The ole' memory ain't what it used to be! :lol:

Above quote was from HSE and was also in the local newspaper. If you infer, low pressure and inside that is up to you. Regards pressure and pipes I think thats academic. Isn't a gas main a pipe? The report in the accident report is quite vague. Only one man was injured, and he was...

No insult taken. One should always check references/sources etc. I drove past the pub that afternoon. Long after the bang luckily! http://www.norfolkpubs.co.uk/norfolkc/coltishall/coltilt.htm (their pic's nearly as good as mine!) and...

How does size affect this? ChrisJ78 wrote: Surely it's the technology which determines the screen quality, refresh rate etc. Try mentioning Sale Of Goods Act 1979 as amended, where 'Satisfactory quality' now is to include 'durability' para 14 sub para 2B (e) See this link:-...

Thanks for replies, has any one out there actually done it? Mounted an LCD Tv on the same wall as a modern style gas fire that is. Preferbly a flueless hole in the wall type gas fire. 'Twas my original question. I know it's been done as I've seen pics in magazines and seen the...

Was a lovely old 17c pub. Sparky drilled through a gas pipe and then woke up on the pavement several yards away. Its a block of flats now :cry:

:evil: Thanks TicklyT but that looks too much like an LC circuit to me! I hated doing those :evil: I hated skin effect and waveguides too! :evil: I don't remember Leakance. (Not measured in Mhos is it?) Sounds like conductance to me. Just checked lightswitch three cables with...

Thanks Bongos, the simplest answers are always the best! So it seems a) 'Capacitive Coupling' is common in domestic electric wiring and b) an earthed centre CPC in T&E will greatly reduce the effect and c) the phenomen is more detectable with a very high impedance meter (DMM). I...

It didn't kill you then :lol:

I wish to install a hole in the wall gas fire on the outside wall of the living room then mount an LCD TV above it. I e-mailed five gas fire retailers, four of which flatly refused to entertain the idea. The fifth advised against it but would enter into a discusion. I already have gas in...

Thanks to you all for your ideas especially Bernard Green for your capacitance explanation. If I remember rightly (I often don't) for that much of a voltage (228v ac) to be seen across the switch then the wires would surely have to be microns apart for charge to develop at such a low volatge. I...
