All bonding is equipotential, that's the whole point of it. Equi = equal Potential = voltage. Keeps two or more conductive parts at the same voltage by connecting them together. When faults occur within an electrical installation, the main earth terminal and everything connected to it will have...

The point is - reputable forum, someone replies about some topic, a link exists to some other site - therefore certain search engines and similar will classify the linked to site as credible. Repeat a few 100s of times on many forums/sites and the result is that the linked to site gets shoved...

Single hose affairs are grossly inefficient, as they cool the air in the room, then use a substantial proportion of that cooled air to remove the heat and shove it outside, while at the same time hot air from outside enters the building elsewhere.

The end of the new cable has all 3 conductors shorted together in that single connector,

Premixed tub slop is generally to be avoided, but in this case the whole lot is a disaster from the start. If you just want a temporary fix the tub slop will be as good as anything. A cement adhesive may cause further problems as it can react with plaster in ways that cause tiles to fall off...

Lino was a very hardwearing durable material, seldom used today. Mostly made from linseed oil and other natural materials. Invented in the 1800s. Most of what is called 'lino' today is crap synthetic chemical plastic sold cheaply on big rolls, typically used for substandard 'refurbishments'...

Grey shiny plastic wastes = ikea crap alert. Sling the entire lot away and replace with McAlpine or similar.

BS 4293 had no concept of RCD types, they were all AC and nothing else. IEC EN 61009 and the harmonized EU / UK versions of that does have types such as A There was a significant overlap of those two standards, IEC 61009 was first published in 1991, and BS 4293 wasn't withdrawn until 2009...

That's exactly it - the ONT is Openreach property and is the end of their network, anything after that is either ISP or consumer property. Just as the old master socket was the last Openreach item before other equipment was connected to it. The ISP equipment for FTTP is just a router, there is...

Drill new holes in the ikea baseplate so they are the correct spacing.

PIR connected to one of the downlights, the PIR will need permanent (unswitched) power, light connected to the switched output of the PIR. Double pole switch: one pole for the other lights same as they are now one pole for the centre light, connect to the L and SL terminals of the PIR so that...

Totally possible to live without a car and rely on public transport. Provided you live in London and don't go to far away places such as anywhere outside the M25,

Most of that list doesn't exist today. Obsolete junk written decades ago.

Unless all of your internal walls and ceilings are insulated and every door will be kept sealed closed at all times, that vision is fantasy.

When I had diesel vehicles, servicing was £200-£300 including the MOT. Never had any vehicle serviced at a main stealers, so nothing to compare there. Never bothered with books or stamps either.
