Hypothetical question, trying to understand what would be allowed and what not. Say I have a Metal radiator, fed by 15MM copper pipe, using brass connectors (No plastic anywhere). And it requires bonding in order to comply with XYZ. Are you allowed to just bond all the pipes directly at...

In that case, I'm the guy you borrowed £50,- off and still need to re-pay me. :lol:

Nah, what saddens me is the attitude towards "big man" when in my opinion he quite obviously did the right thing, as the other passenger was disrupting the rail service, being abusive towards the conductor and refusing to be the bigger man and simply accept that the train won't be going anywhere...

Wow reading these posts really saddens me!

Very nice!! Can you come do mine too please? :D

You'd be surprised ;)

Doesn't the single phase socket in the bottom of the picture kind of hint to its use? :P

Please explain?

I thought you were a man of rules and regulations? Why would you adopt Pre 1977 colours for it? It would take just as much work to use the current colours for it. If he wanted to do it "correct" and within compliance why not go straight to the current IEE colour scheme, as opposed to pre...

Sir Richard Branson and Sir Alan Sugar are prime examples of that, aren't they.

How come? You are free in this country to do and become whatever you would want to become, want to be a doctor? Study hard and go to Medical school. Want to start your own erotic store? Get some capital and make a business plan. Want to become an Art Critic? Your free to do so. Want to...

Thermalite can support loads properly but they have to be spread adequately with a wide enough lintel. How far is it overlapped onto the walls? If the lintel was a pre-fab, there should be instructions on how wide a gap it can span maximum, along with how much of the lintel edges should...

Is it just me or do these cryptic "I know the answer to what you are asking, but I am not sharing it until you tell me your answer" type of posts get on your nerves? I'd love to know the reasons between cable selection for Alarms. Telephone vs Alarm Stranded vs Solid Cross-sectional...

Communism, capitalism. Two different labels for the same thing, a system that wants (Requires) you to work your ass off and hand your money over to "The Government" for the "Greater good". Point of view from Slovakia from what I have seen. Communism - Everyone had a job - Everyone was...

Right, first rooms furniture has been moved in, its kinda "done". Had to go out to buy a new TV as the old one had a too great a depth to it!

If its fused accordingly and water proof to IP55 or greater I don't see why not? Something like this would be ideal for "Wet" scenario's: http://www.tlc-direct.co.uk/Main_Index/Wiring_Accessories_Menu_Index/RCD_Protected_Range/RCD_Protected_Range_2/index.html And sockets like these...

Right, because we are all serial killers slash rapists who will know EXACTLY which building it will be and which apartment, because of three pictures: 1. The hallway facing towards the door with the wall between the hall and the common area. 2. The wall between the hall and the common area...

I think it's time to bust out the camera and take some pictures of your hallway and the common area and the device.. :lol:

Sounds like a suitable candidate for one of these rogue builders type of show..

Well, when a filament goes pop, what kind of behaviour would you see? Sudden increase in temperature -> Increase in resistance -> decrease in current. ? But surely that would be the same as switching on a device.. Maybe it acts as a capacitor for a split second between the ends of the...
