    Wall mount 75" / 43kg TV

    In which case, bin the lot, and the screws. Yeah, they'd be fine. Just get branded ones, not Chinesium ones. I personally would use Fischer S10 plugs (which are 50mm long) with about 70mm M8 coach screws (depends on your plaster depth). Four along the top and just regular red plugs, washers...

    Bench dog clamps

    Because it pushes to the side also. Creates a lot of friction in the hole and won't pull out.

    Mounting TV on dot and dab insulated plasterboard wall

    Couldn't tell you TBH. Anything by Fischer is always good, I'm just recommending the ones I use all the time.

    Mounting TV on dot and dab insulated plasterboard wall

    Fischer S10 or SX10 plugs and 110mm M8 coach screws. Tighten with a socket set, not an impact driver. DON'T over tighten, just nip it up and it will hold fine.

    Is there a standard for self tapping screws.

    Did they say they were 4mm, 'equivalent' to No8 screws? (which is wrong BTW) No8 screws have a nominal OD of 4.17mm, but will always read slightly less with calipers, because the edges of the threads are slightly rounded. So, a 4mm metric screw will read about 3.9mm with calipers.

    core drill recomendations please......

    That has no reverse gear, which would irritate me when trying to dislodge a jam. Get a Bosch GSB 162-2 RE. Anything cheaper, which says it is 'variable speed', seems to just mean via the trigger only, rather than a dial to set the speed properly for consistency.

    Anchor bolts… which one ??

    Fischer SX8 40mm nylon plugs with 70mm M6 coach screws and washers. You'll be able to climb it.

    Hang cabinet in bathroom but studs?? (I'm a novice)

    Say for example your cabinet has four fixing points, one in each corner. Use plasterboard fixing for all four, but then, add an extra screw at the top where there is a stud. A single 2 inch number 8 screw into a stud can take more than my body weight, even in a cantilever load. A neodymium...

    Windscreen issues

    It's a very high current draw, so the fuses and relays for the heated screen will be in the fusebox under the bonnet, not in the inside one. Read through the lists for that instead.

    Windscreen issues

    May well have a relay for each side, like Fords do. If it does, swap them and see if the problem moves sides. If it does, then you just need a new relay. edit: same applies if it has a fuse for each side.

    Switch wires too small

    Yes, Wago 221 range are very compact. You'd have to sleeve the blue one as brown, so you might as well use two short lengths of brown..

    Is this Ethernet compatible?

    That's just a phone socket. Hopefully a router is attached, which will have both WiFi and some ethernet ports (usually 2 or 4). If you need more than that for a business, you need a separate Ethernet Switch.
