microwave sensors remove so many of the problems you had with pir. it can detect a body over a wide area, even as you approach from up or down stairs. pir is so limited to what the sensor can "see"

Yes, the sensor i would use has the click to serve power so i would wire it in conjunction with the existing wall switch operation

Yes, i think you have confirmed i can do it the way I wanted someone to confirm I was thinking i could. i could not quite understand the drawings but I'll explain it in my simplistic way; In the same way you would connect a mains powered fire detector off a light fitting, you would connect the...

the sensor (or sensor light as you refer to it) would be directly wired into the light fitting wiring so it is continually powered regardless of the light bulb being powered

at most a cable to sensor and then back to light fitting if my idea is correct

unsafe? what regulations are you saying are being breached to classify it as an unsafe house?

thanks but need an analogue solution for tenants

care to elaborate?

Across 3 floors there are 5 ceiling lights covering the landing and stairs, no natural light. Currently, the wall light switches turn on all 5 lights and switch off after a minute or 2. If I correctly wire in a PIR/microwave sensor to any particular light fitting so that a particular ceiling...

What pushfit? If I cut 2 lengths from the same pipe, can those two pieces solvent weld together?

Will pipe solvent weld to another piece of pipe?

Yes, the old chrome pipe was slipped in and is still in good condition, but the rest ws low quality like you suggested.

Agree with all this although I am hoping by hacking out a bit of the surround of the pipe the push fit might go in... not sure how many mm it needs though

Might try this if I don't renew the whole pipe and section!

Old chrome trap was crumbling; I'll replace with plastic. Previously, the chrome pipe (approx 30mm diameter) leading into the wall went into the wall pipe you see in photo (approx 34mm). I have 32mm pipe but it's too big to go inside wall pipe and too small to put the chrome pipe into (I thought...

I tried it again and it now works. I perhaps had a faulty cable or the wago connector had not gripped it correctly

• Bought new intercom but does not come with "lock controller" shown below • I wired a 12v power adaptor exactly as shown circled in image, but instead of connecting to a lock, the 2 wires were connected to a multimeter • Multimeter shows 12v coming through cable when connected directly and 0v...

Directly from circuit to light fitting

Thanks. Parcel tape is temporary until I get the duct (I have to run around the getting the 1st fix materials for him)
