I've taken down kitchen units and ive renewed a section of plaster 80cm x 90 cm board that was tiled. Ive put new piece up and used sticky fibretape and gyproc easifill to fill the gap in plastetboard. This bit is going to be seen and I can see the tape, am I better using joining compound or...

The socketis out the way and concealed. I was thinking if the lights thro time die and need replace . Would led rope light work ?, around 3 meters. Can't find details on what amperage it would use .

Its for kitchen cabinet lights. Can't run from switch as the switch doesn't have a earth or neutral, and they can't be picked up from another circuit. That's why it comes from fused 5a fcu

Its a double switch

Thanks for replying. It should have said spurred from. The socket will be at other side of room that's going to be powered from switch. Cable getting run under floor, it will he within the regulations for the run.

Picture of proposed wiring. As you can see the earth and neutral from both cables are joined together in box. The switch is to switch the live. So cable from fcu to switch com (only live connected, ). And cable from l1 only live connected. Then all 3 wires connected to socket. Please...

Thanks for answer . I was going to just switch the live through the switch and take the neutral and earth from the fcu that will be powering .the switch Join the neutral and earth to the cable leaving box So when it gets to the socket l, n, and e will be connected to socket.

Quick version. Connect 2 gang way switch to existing one gang switch. Contains 3 wires red.blue and yellow (see pic in previous post). I assume Red is hot, blue switch and yellow for two way switching. ( got two switches in room to control one light). I want to run a socket from the other...

Ok I could have worded it better or took out some clutter (read it through before posting) .

Umn b.a.s . Insulting behaviour. Where is evidence of that ?, lazy ?. How is that . I ask for help. Not to get degrade

Yes red yellow and blue. And taking the neutral and earth from the fcu. Heres a pic of wires . And one of double switch .

Hi running a mk double 2 way switch to a socket. Sswitch has 4 terminals at each side. (8 in total). Each bank has a com . Sp ( no terminal inside). 1 (way), 2. . My old light switch has 3 wires. Blue. Brown. Yellow. And is in room that has two light switches to one fluorescent light...

Cause its all budgeted and I would nees to wait till end of next month to get it done. Unless I leave getting the cu done.

Got a hold of a spark who doesn't do homers but says 4 mm radial would be better for the one side of the room . I emailed him photos of room and proposed route and said its fine. . he said to save money I could buy the stuff and pay a sparky a day rate and get the cu change and wiring done...

If your on about lightswitch . It would be taken from a socket through a 3 amp fcu upto switch then to a socket. Both earth and neutral would be reinstated. I would ask the spark if ge would sign it off . Warrenty i wouldnt bother . If spark wouldnt sign of i would go to building control and...

Ok i know whats being said. But for all The work to get carried out would cost about 700 pounds. Ive not got that type of money. If i put wires in but not connected to the switches in a radial . Then spark can test and verify the design. Cable would be taking same route as old one. So i wouldnt...

Ok. You know What i ment. Switch. Gong to run it as ring main 4 mm And leave legs for spark to connect . And spur off for hood ect. Not doing grid switches now . .

How do yous propose I do the switches if installing. Could take pelmet lights of a spur into a fcu but would like it to run it from liggt socket

Ok grid switches will b done away with. 4 mm wull run radial . The cabinet lights will just work from a fsu. And hob ect switches just attatched to frame of units .spark will test work
