I'd be more concerned with having the electrical installation inspected and tested rather than fitting different light fittings. Not sure I've ever seen cable with only red and white cores, except for speaker cables.

Another vote here for stainless steel conduit.

The cable entry holes are a lot smaller on the 30A ways though.

They've been about for decades! Not the most professional solution, but Ideal for DIY or a quick swap.

They are OK. I've come across many without issues.

What are you going to do when appliance testing time comes and the unit is failed for not meeting the required standards?

Why not, decent inline fans offer superior airflow through the same size duct, reduced sound levels and a longer duct run will cause additional restriction from backdraft compared to a 1' pipe through the wall. One of the first jobs I did when I moved into my current house.

Post a photo and the model number of the new switch. Something doesn't look right there.

Too late now, but we always try to avoid wall fans where possible. High quality in-line fans are more powerful and a lot quieter/ no back draughts etc.

Looks like AI generated nonsense to me.

Probably not great to drink from it. You can buy kettles that heat water with mains into 2 stainless steel strips. I did it with mains and 2 tea spoons a few years ago, I probably drank it at the time but don't remember any specific taste. I wonder if that's why I'm going bald...

Loads still in use! Don't forget electrode boilers either, often 3 phase!

Totally not relevant to this thread, but last year I worked in a house where the elderly customer was frequently recording TV programs in the day to watch when she got back in from the farm in the evenings on a Philips V2000 machine. I instantly recognised the design of the tapes, of which there...

An adaptable box is designed to be adapted, a normal domestic consumer unit probably isn't? Though I've always argued if it has a DIN rail in it you should be able to install DIN mount devices. Yes sometimes care has to be taken with spacing for airflow around contactors, but a small lightly...

Here is a thermal image I took during a recent call out. The cylinder is fairly tall so the top entry element only gets about half way down. This is on the ground floor and the cylinder almost touches the ceiling, to replace the element you have to take the carpet and floorboards up above. The...

The Ring doorbell PSU supplied with some Ring doorbells, or available separately from Ring, fits a single DIN module way. Though there are arguments saying products not type tested by the consumer unit manufacturer shouldn't be fitted in the consumer unit. Ring also make a matching surface...

Your post wasn't there when I replied!

Probably the tap on the transformer!

The flex will be a short section from a connection point to the photocell, the cpc will be available there.

I keep 3 core flex on the van that has brown black and blue cores for photocells.
