Hello all, I'm putting this question in plumbing as well as roofing and guttering. A couple of years ago I cleaned out the storm drain (pictured) because the rainwater was not draining and was flooding the area around our house. Recently our local management association has had some other...

Thanks much. I'll have to have a new wire put in.

Hello, I am not sure if this is possible but I am hoping someone can help and let me know. Thanks in advance. I want to add a light to the existing wiring if possible and have the two lights operate independent of each other. I've attached a photo of the current wiring. Is it...

Hello and any help would be much appreciated! Basically the circuit breaker (MCB) that is on the household lights is randomly switching off. We have never had a problem before like this. The breaker may stay on for days, hours or only seconds with all the lights on only to spark and break...

Thanks so much to everyone it worked perfectly! I need to buy a deeper housing but otherwise everything is working perfectly. Thanks again!!!

Thanks for the information. I do see the line separating lines. I'll give it a try.

Hello and thanks in advance to anyone who can help us. We are attempting to switch out a 4 gang switch with a 4 gang dimmer switch. I tried copying the wiring exactly as it is on the old switch and only one dimmer ended up working. I've included 4 photos 2 of the fronts of the switches and 2...

Oops I meant B5,B10 etc...

JohnD, Nevermind it looks like I've found them on the TLC-direct website. They are N5,N10 etc. Thanks again for pointing me in the right direction.

JohnD, Thanks much. I haven't purchased the MCBs yet. I've made my email visible now. I was looking at the ones in the first photo. Any idea what the product name/number is for the ones you showed me that I do need? Thanks again.

Thanks much!!
