Can anyone explain "mark up" on electrical components? I understand a little for petrol and time (although I expect you have lots of the standard stuff in the van anyway). what sort of % would you charge for markup? :roll:

If any of you want some real man's maths, all you have to do is ask... Try fourier transform without a FFT for example on a periodic waveform. All you have is a pen, paper and your brain. :wink: When you have finished that, do some laplace transforms. YOu all deal with AC, sure...

B767, is that BAS? :lol:

Or, how about more manslaughter/GBH charges for those completing work that is unsafe and causing injury? More stick, less carrot. Its quite simple. Anyone, either registered or unregistered can complete the paperwork, it all has to be submitted free of charge to the LABC (who is paid for...

You will still have to pay for the priveledge though.

I would suggest that you need to get your house water supply pipework earthed if not already so... If you have an RCD on the fault circuit, you will know straight away which area of your circuitry is at fault, as the RCD will trip. As a temporary measure, if you can find a decent earth, a...

Do you have any earth connection to your incoming pipework? Have you got mixed plastic and metal pipeowrk/fittings?

As a minimum, I would be getting this: http://www.amazon.co.uk/IEE--site-Guide-7671-Regulations/dp/0863418546/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1294994890&sr=8-1 This place: http://nihs.co.uk/?gclid=CP7qgaCouaYCFY4f4Qod_CNBIQ do weekend hire rates, it works out at 50 quid for 2 days.
