Hi, I need to replace a mcb in a Loadmaster d/b It seems that 3p breakers smaller than 40a arent available anymore. Does anyone know if replacement breakers were made that will fit in this board? Thanks

i have to say, i have never seen a cable dolly in use, even when we had the 300mm swa and 500mm awa installed. cant remember how they did it though but i bet it was hard work!

quite impressive :) what tube was it? scaffold? a solid bar is always stronger than a tube too ;) just a lot heavier.

i have 12v halogen downlighters all over my house, fitted 4 years ago - not replaced a single one. i did have CFLs in the outside lights but they were so bad they were pointless so I changed them for halogen GLS lamps, not replaced one yet. the LEDs dont give as good light as halogens. I do...

Id call that TN-S if there were a n-e link in the cutout then PNB but BS7671 doesnt seem to recognise PNB anymore, if ever

i have put lining paper on it now, 1700gsm, well started it anyway. looks like ill get a good finish with it when its all painted. thanks for the help :)

its polyfilla one fill, i have just put some unibond on the wall and the old paint is bubbling up. might have to skim it. might give lining paper a go first. turning into a mammoth job now :(

i havent painted yet! just filling the holes

Hi, Im decorating my bedroom for the second time since i moved in. Some parts of the wall have blistered, i think this was damp as the house was left empty for a few years beforehand. I have scraped this off no problem but now on the other walls, where im filling using a lightweight...

its being used as a 3 phase board? top, bottom right and bottom left seperate phases?

If you are going to replace it with three sp boards and a 3p board, why dont you fit a large enough 3phase one and put RCBOs in that as required, would be a lot tidier.

because that would look bleedin awful, FCus all over the place. I will be doing my new kitchen like this (probably MK or Crabtree though)

Hi, I have got a Saunier Duval F30E boiler and it has sprung a leak on a plastic part between the heat exchanger and the DHW outlet. I cant see what part it is in the instructions but think it might be the three way valve. Is anyone able to identify the part for me? Thanks

Looks more like a foon was used

I thought it might be the earth for a party line. these were sometimes connected to a rod at the telegraph pole. That might make more sense. Irrelevant now anyway :)

another giveaway for it being cable tv would be the depth that its buried at, about 3" is usual :)

its not your cable tv then is it? That service is always delivered using two cables, often joined together. Not seen them looking like that though.

The armoured one looks original, its a bit odd seeing a white indoor grade telephone cable buried unprotected. Id make a guess that the armoured one has failed at some point and been replaced by the white one. Can you see where your telephone cables enter the house? usually via an external...

Looks like an armoured telephone cable to me

we used to have 2 800 amp supplies fed from a transfomer which also fed local distribution
