Thanks for the swift response breezer. I understand about the neutral and earth terminals thanks for reminding me. Also thanks for the reminder about Part P! :evil:

Hi... it would be most convienient for me to take a spur from the MCB terminals of my ring circuit as it is closer than other sockets on the circuit (the wall backs onto that housing the CU. Just wondered if this is allowed under the current regs (i read a thread from 2004 that said it was...

How would I stop it going down cracks in the floorboards/skirting board gaps? Just make it thick? :)

I intend to put my fridge-freezer in an alcove in the kitchen. However, the floor runs from side to side and as a result the fridge rocks when you open the door etc. This means that i need to level the floor before tiling... the height difference is about 10mm over 1m so using more tile adhesive...

http://www.diynot.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=64491 Relates to connecting a single oven and hob upto my cooker circuit... i don't want to be putting in a new way on my CU (notifiable and all of my recent re-wire has been signed off). The way I see it... the easiest way of fixing to problem...

Hello all, I've recently had my kitchen fitted and the following problem/query came out when the fitter was discussing the electrics for the single oven and ceramic hob. During my rewire I had fitted a dedicated circuit into the CU for the "cooker" on a 40A MCB, RCD protected (due to 13...

Neither run when tap/thermostat are turned on/up :x

It doesn't do anything - the light comes on to tell you that it knows hot water is in demand (same with CH) and that is it!

On stream changed the meter... I have rang them and they put on their teflon cape... "because it has been 2 months since the work you'll have to get a Corgi engineer out" :evil:

Need to replace a few as I've smashed them or just lost/thrown them away. (I just mean the round plastic things that go on top of the actual valves). Looked in a shed or too but nothing... to plumbers merchants stock these kind of things or do any of you pros happen to have 5 of them in the...

Hello all, I've been doing up a flat with an Alpha 240E boiler fitted. Worked OK before I got the Gas Meter changed 2 months ago. At that time though I had all the radiators off and no taps to use the hot water so the boiler has never been used since. I tried today to get it working...
