How do I check it moves to CH position, sorry if thats a stupid question

Grey wire I have 75v with red wire still removed from main wiring

i seem to be having intermittent heating at the moment I have got home, house is warm, radiators warm-ish, and controller telling me heating is on. However, boiler (Glowworm) is displaying 39'c instead of usual 70'c when on. Have traced wiring as follows:- CH ON at controller -240v Pin...

As I understand it then. 1. Run 10mm earth from earth point which is screwed to the wall just outside the CU. 2. Drill thru wall and run outside from one side of porch to the other. 3. Connect to gas pipe prior to any Tee's and preferably within 600mm of my side of the meter. Does this...

:roll:

It runs from the wall mounted white meter box on the side of the house along the outside of the wall, up into the downstairs toilet where the boiler is mounted and then along the wall further to the rear of the house to the gas hob in the kitchen

Really apreciate that, if there is no bonding at the gas meter, is it ok to run this earth around the outside of the house? I know it may look ugly but consumer unit/electrical entry point is one side and then gas pipe is the other side. Does the gas pipe entering the boiler inside the house...

I have had the gas inspection done on the house I rent out. The inspector has failed it on the hob not working properly, (now fixed) and also no earth bonding to gas pipe. Is this an easy fix for a,(I think) competent DIYer or do I have to get somebody in? New tenants are moving in very...

Thanks, this gives me somewher to start from

Does anybody have any clue as to how to obtain board matches for current ranges of doors etc available in Homebase/B & Q etc. My wife wants the doors for our kitchen but I need to make some custom cabinets to suit and therefore need to be able to source some either MFC or preferably MF/MDF...

who are you talking about?

Thought I would share my amusement. Signed up for tradepoint last week with the promise of massive savings, Cost nothing so thought why not? Go in today to be confronted by one of the tradepoint 'experts'. She was unsure how it worked, I asked for the price of some items that I had eyed up...

Sorry, To clarify: I meant the hob extractor hood is powered via a 3 pin plug which is sconnected to a socket which is fed from the live into the kitchen for the lighting circuit, This just seemed a little odd to me and as the ceiling is down and we having everytihng else done, figured if...

Ok, I have found intermediate switches, but they seem to be only 1 switch per 1 gang plate, is this normal? It would possibly make it look a bit industrial having 2 of the intermediate switches along with a third for the ouside lighting. Any other options? By the way, thanks for the...

We are currently remodelling our kitchen and have lighting circuits to re-design. Before I ask the electrician on Wednesday face to face and look stupid could you tell me if the following is possible. 1] 2 seperate sets of downlights in ceiling - 1 inner square and 1 outer square that are...

What paperwork should I expect for this sort of work then?

He has moved my existing Gowworm Flexicom from the kitchen to the downstairs toilet

Can you just clarify what paperwork he should be doing for me? I presumed something to say he has moved the boiler so that any subsequent house sale/ current insurance would be ok. He simply tells me to pay him and then he will do an invoice. Genuinely disapointed in myself that I let...

That is exactly what I'm worried about, He has got gas safe on his stationary, asked if he was before he started and then checked that he had completed all the safety checks according to gas safe regs etc. He has now got snotty when I asked all paperwork for the gas work he did along with an...
