    New thermostat wires

    Do yhe first floor sockets work? Wonder if that cu is mislabelled ! Could test some of the switches on the left to see if they do what they say. By turning them off. Have you seen the boiler light up since you have been trying?

    Well I think you have drilled thru a cable by the stat. May as well take the stat backing off the wall and see if you can see anything thru the hole and if that cable moves freely

    New thermostat wires

    BT phone line/service 'upgrade'

    You can also wirelessly connect a BT/EE handset to the router. Given the amount of router changes, I think the handset would only end up as E waste in 2 years time, so don't even want to spend £5 on one lol !

    BT phone line/service 'upgrade'

    So with Fibre you have to have (at least) 2 powered boxes. 1. An ONT Optical Network Termination. and is the size an FCU (so standard back boxes can be used on new builds). The fibre goes in, DC power, and an ethernet socket to the router (a red cable is used to signify its incoming). Early...

    BT phone line/service 'upgrade'

    Apparently the fibre connections don't go into the cabinets Just seam to be all under ground. I think they are trying to get rid of the cabinets. Someone had an idea, what to do with these roadside boxes, that have a power supply to them? Answer = An ideal point for an EV charger. Except...

    Allowable Cooker Connection Unit outlet plate positions behind built-in oven?

    If they have said to put the "the mains socket" in hatched area, then they will have tested that, and satisfied themselves its ok. Have you purchased the oven yet? It seam's to suggest it comes with a plug, and you need to fit a socket. In which case you fit a socket As heat rises it should be...

    I don’t think the ups included the router The cost and maintenance of batteries would make it silly of them to provided it to everyone. The ONT had a phone socket I guess. Now deleted

    BT phone line/service 'upgrade'

    morq It’s interesting that the early fibre adopters had battery backup installed in their homes to ensure phone still worked. (Maybe an option). They seam to have stopped that now. You can see videos on YouTube with them.

    I don't think the data is out there yet, as to what a FTTP with phone connection only, would cost. If anyone was likely to get this, it was John, but he seams to have escaped it for now

    AND Heat. Don't want to get the fuse any hotter than necessary. I fitted an AEG cooker, and the instructions located certain external surfaces would be hot. (near elements i expect) Heat rises, so that location at the bottom seams sensible
