Last word here :lol: Regards

I think that you have lost the plot with your reasoning. You appear to be the sort of guy who pleads innocence all the way to the gallows, just to get the last word - causes a row in an empty hoose as they say! Get well soon. :lol: Regards

Alternatively, get quotes from electricians; and at the time discuss how he/she would do it for a consensus opinion. None so blind! There's warning tape above, what regulation are you referring to? If he gave a quote and gives comments on how it is run before laying? No problem.

It's under paving! Before the work is allocated? Cart and Horse/Ducks in row. Regards

How do you derive a female electrician from the post? I would lay a 2.5²mm SWA around 200mm depth with plastic warning tape 100m on top of the cable, leave about 6m spare on the side away from the garage and enough slack on the other side to reach the junction box on the garage, take photos...

I saw one of these recently - it was from the Phillipines with 2 core cable. Told the customer to replace the metal lampholder with one from John Lewis, that has a screw on the body of the lampholder, they're available elsewhere too. The other possibility is to drill a hole in the body of the...

I'd suspect a neutral to earth fault, it needs a competent electrician to suss out. Jaymack

Borrowed Neutral?

The son would get a shock at the tip of his finger only; (unless he had another earth path through hand or foot etc.), this would probably cause a burn and some shock pain but not fatal; unless the son had a physical defect. An RCD would only operate under these conditions if there was a path...

If you are in the UK; but not Scotland, this work is notifiable to Part P, 48 hrs in advance, OK for next Xmas perhaps. :lol: I doubt that your installation would pass the LBA inspection, even if advice was given. Regards

Depending on the number of ways in the DB, a replacement can take from 6 hours upwards, a PIR is recommended by both the NICEIC and NAPIT before the work, (whether this is quoted for or not beforehand). An EIC is required in any case and the PIR is similar in content. A PIR itself can also...

It's not of relevance, it's the same system for electrical supplies; although it's more civilised up there in God's country. Unfortunately I am in the land of the infidels, someone has to keep them right, can't leave it to Gordon on his own. :lol: Have you contacted this rental company again...

You should ask the company what the supplier's system is for your property, they should be able to tell you, if they can't - tell them that you are contacting trading standards unless they retest and confirm the type of supply. That value of ohms is acceptable for a TT installation - ideally...

I have noticed this noise just lately, more pronounced when first started and goes on for about 15 minutes. It's sounds like someone exhaling moderately loudly every 1/2 second, I thought that it may be a water leak and water dripping onto the heat exchanger; or a gas valve. Any thoughts...

I've inherited this boiler since moving into this house, I don't have a manual - either operating or installation/maintenance. Are these available somewhere? What is the estimated age of this model? Regards

If only one rotor phase is affected, I would suspect an earth fault on the rotor. Have you tested the insulation on the rotor at twice the working voltage? Is there any eccentricity on that slipring? Is there a mixture of brush grades? Is the centre slipring of the same material as the others...

Looks like a socket to me. :lol: Still available for lighting circuits and to receive "plugs" for table lamps. Regards

Have you connected the transformer 12V output to the 230V supply? Regards
