Dunno what Pfwa is... But 30 years of climbing up ladders, going into lofts, under floorboards etc... takes its toll. Especially when in the early days you didn't wear PPE and now your knees are knackered.

What car is it and what colour?

I never had to log into a Samsung account when we had two Samsung TVs, nor a Google account with our current Hisense TV.

:ROFLMAO: 30 years on the tools wears you out!

Damn!!! :ROFLMAO:

I'm glad I'm not responding any more.

The best way to find out if the socket is suitable to be used for your outside socket is to check the size of the MCB and the cables feeding the socket, as Pete said. A ring final circuit is fed via a 30 or 32A device and normally has two cables at each point on the circuit, sometimes three if...

Has there been a request by family not to mention their name?

You are obviously not he. Thanks for clearing that up!

Yet you still do it. Adults have the capacity to moderate their behaviour. Why don't you?

So you're JP?

Are they bunched?

Presumably FOC...

And that, Mr W2, is my final reply to you on this matter!

As I said... You're really stretching the bounds of credibility now. Which is why Pete sensibly declined to jump down this rabbit hole. I have seen many ridiculous, dangerous and nonsensical things in 30 years of working with electricity. But I've never seen the situation you are describing...

I feel really bad. I sent him a DM wishing him all the best for his op in Manchester, hoping I wasn't too late. That was on the 18th May...

Think about it from a design POV. Why would you design an installation for a stationary appliance like that? You just wouldn't. I think anyone who looked at that mess wouldn't think of doing anything other than fixing the stuff to the wall or cupboard.

I rather think you are. I have to agree with Pete. Fix the box, socket and cable, all of which designed for fixed installation, to the fabric of the building. If you think the socket will get wet, re-site it elsewhere or replace it with a suitably rated socket. You even suggested replacing...

I'm not quite sure where you are going here. Of course these things are subjective. One of the complaints about the 14th Ed. was that it was written too much like an instruction booklet, that it was "dumbed down". So a decision was made by the committee to write the 15th and future Eds. in a...

Cable is for fixed installations. Those sockets and boxes are not designed to be trailing.
