Currently daisy chaining strip lights together. The instructions specify that when daisy chaining the cable should be H05G, H07G or H05S, H07S type designed to run within the lamp itself. For temps >140. Abit extreme!! Can't find this cable anyware - anyone have any alternatives I could...

I called the planning office and I will need building regs AND planning permission. They said if the roof lantern/light takes the roof height above 2500mm then planning will be needed as it's within 2m of boundry. However, the building is already above 2500mm, it is 2550mm so whats the score...

I would like to remove the stud wall that sits undernieth a purlin in my dormer bungalow to enable me to utilise the lost 7 foot of space that sits behind their, thus givin a much bigger bedroom. The Purlin spans about 3.2m across and is wooden roughly 100mm by 300mm thick. It sits in the brick...

OK I am going to run new feed from cold water tank so I can get equal pressures on hot and cold. I have two questions..... 1. Can I use the large cold water tank that is used to supply central heating cylinder? 2. The pipe running to the shower is currently 15mm (on mains pressure at the...

It's a triton antares mixer shower.....

I am installing a shower at present and have done some tests and the shower will not get warm until the thermostat is as hot as possible. It is a thermostatic mixer shower, mains pressure cold and hot from the hot water tank. Could the pressure be too high on the cold side preventing hot...

Thanks for the reply Richard C. It's a shower in a wetroom. I've done the floor using Marmox and their showerlay preformed floor. Was going to do the stud walls that form the shower sides in 12.5mm aqua panel becuase of the availablity and size suits. BUT it may better to do the lot in...

Can anyone confirm whats what. i'm looking for a waterproof board for tiling onto. One that will NOT allow water to pass through, ie for tanking. Not just a board that doesn't matter if it gets wet which seems to be a big confusing mess with these manufacturers. Looked at: WEDI MARMOX...

I fitted it myself and will change it to user reset for future. So do I just go into engineer mode, reset menu and do a reset?

I just attempted to arm the alarm today and I forgot the garage door was open so the alarm triggered as soon as it was set. I went back inside after closing the garage door unset the alarm and attempted to reset it. It would not let me giving the error: 'Can't set use ENGNR code' I have...

Many thanks all!!

Hay thats great!! Many thanks for the reply. So I would put the Diode on one of the 12v ac out puts and then a resistor on each LED and then wire in parallel? P.S Does it matter which side of the LED the resister go?

I have some garden lights (non LED) running off a 12v AC transformer that would normally be used for Haolgen lighting, 60va 12v AC etc etc. This work great, but I now want to add some LED's. Can I use this 12ac feed to also power the 3 x 3.3v 20ma Blue LED's (designed to run off 12v dc) if I...

OK thanks :D , will order new heater. Fingers crossed.

Sometimes it does heat and sometimes it stays cold?? Would a heater problem cause the timer to go to pot?

Incidently, is there a reset button on the machine?
