They should be in an enclosure, although it may be difficult to find one which is shallow enough to fit behind the mirror. Another option is a plug/socket arrangement such as https://www.tlc-direct.co.uk/Products/GKLC20.html

They may have decided that, but shoving >30A through the standard contacts does damage them, as on the example here https://flameport.com/electric_museum/wylex_fuse_boxes/wylex_standard_2.cs4 The difference between them is the standard 30A versions have a spring piece made from the copper...

'slow powering down' is a made up story. Loose wire in a ceiling rose would not cause intermittent tripping. No, that one is pretty much brand new and even if it wasn't, replacing it won't find or fix the problem. No. Actually testing the circuit would be the first thing to do.

They all will be, those plug in type of MCBs for the Wylex Standard range were discontinued well over a decade ago. The actual boxes and other parts went away long before that.

C20 connectors and the other half which is a C19 are rated 16 amps, not 20. If the welder is a maximum of 16A then theoretically it would be suitable, however the situations in which a welder is likely to be used are probably not the place where a C20/19 type of connector is suitable.

Total waste of time without the rest of the electrical knowledge to go with it. Even with that it's mostly a waste of time, with car vendors, energy suppliers and other bandwagon companies offering to sling in EV charging equipment for next to nothing before riding off into the sunset and...

Water leak from upstairs, check any lights in the room directly below the bathroom.

Asbestos containing materials were never labelled, the only time any labelling is applied is if an asbestos survey has been done in the last couple of decades and the material was identified then.

The other problem is whether the circuit this solar is plugged into is suitable for having energy shoved into it in a direction it was never intended for. No person buying such equipment will check this or even know that it was necessary.

Solutions looking for problems, and when those problems can't be found, these solutions create problems of their own.

That product and the instructions have been created by people who have never seen UK wiring and neither care or know how it works. Totally unsuitable for the intended application, and as it supposedly works without a neutral, good luck using that with any modern LED lighting.

Imagine the confusion and carnage when these or similar items are available in the UK.

Why is this extractor installed at all - wall clearly not painted or finished in any way, neither is the ceiling. Is this one of those affairs where decorator imposters come in later and slap emulsion paint over everything? Questionable location for the isolator on the adjacent wall.

That isn't the point. The majority of vehicles spend the majority of their time parked up. That is where charging should occur so how long it takes is irrelevant. The car will be parked there anyway - an extra few seconds to shove a cable into the car is the only additional effort. Today that...

You will need to apply for a new commercial electricity supply which will require details of the proposed loads, and if you intend to convert parts of the building into dewllings they will require their own separate supplies. This is not just a case of fitting a couple of fuses. This is a DIY...

In many normal situations that does happen. The property in question has been previously used as a drug growing emporium. Fuses may have just been been removed - or more likely the supply has been cut in the road outside. This is also a commercial affair, not a domestic dwelling.

On lumens only it's roughly half the wattage, so LED of about 10W. There are other considerations such as what direction(s) the light is emitted, colour temperature, tubes take several minutes to achieve full brightness and old tubes will have less output than when they were new.

You have no 'rights' here at all. As the supply has been cut off, then if you want electricity then you will have to pay whatever reinstatement costs are due. £1000s is likely. Given your other threads on this property, you are way out of your depth here. This property requires vast amounts...

514.4.2 Not permitted unless for a PEN conductor, which it won't be in any normal circuit wiring.
