Jocklandshire My Dad said someone came to do a fire or gas or household safety check last year. He doesn't know who they were, which organisation they were from or who sent them I do recall my Dad last year saying someone had said the one wall heater with the flex disconnected from the...

Polo shirts?!. The service techs used to be smartly turned out too. I'd go on strike if I was asked to wear a half polyester half potato sack uniform.

Thanks, that's one less thing to worry about.

Thanks, it doesn't operate here though. I asked at the local energy efficiency place too but no grants available.

That's the big question. 400 off would be quite useful but despite competitive market conditions, the capital cost is still quite considerable. Even though I can get good discounts at the wholesalers I really can't afford a boiler replacement just now, as only last year had a showerroom...

I rewired the cylinder stat in 3C&E, wired a GCH FCU from it's own way in the consumer unit and a 10mm2 earth A nuisance to do, but better than having mini-trunking round the kitchen wall, which in all likelihood was going to happen. I'm glad to have the GCH working again. They have...

Thanks. I got a good deal on 6243B from Electric Center. City, the only central wholesaler quoted twice the price! It wasn't so bad carrying it in my rucksack. As a BTW, I noticed 6242Y T&E with two brown cores on toolstation. I've never seen that before.

Having look through their PDFs now. Looks like I'll get another lighting control I need the walk-in cupboard time lag grid module there. I'll see how costly the occupancy controls are though, as I'm on a tight budget. Thanks

They look OK too, thanks. It's for my Dad. He's 83 and, although I pay his energy bills, he's a bit too economical for his own good with the lighting and heating, I swear he can smell a light on at 300km. He gets up at night and will fumble through to the loo in the dark. He has fell quite a...

Thanks, don't drive so don't have any of that.

Thanks all, I think have most of the above in the chemicals cabinet. They've been there for years though and with rain ingress the labels and writing have came off. :roll: What's carb cleaner, crank, amerillove? Carbon cleaner?

Have you considered writing for Debretts, Dextrous. Since the death of the late John Morgan, I don't think their Guide to Etiquette and Moderm Manners has been reprinted. They are missing a gentleman of calibre with subtle wit and fine penmnaship. Please accept my apologies for my lack of...

Thanks, I think they used screws, maybe coach screws, I can't see. It just doesn't seem very solid, particularly as it is a tiled floor.

What a price for occupancy sensors!!!! Any recommendations for decent ones for domestic premises at a good price?

[/img][URL=http://img6.imageshack.us/i/20100303042.jpg/][/URL[/img] Why not use connector block for 'CPC's when they've been used already for the line conductors. I reallt don't get the 'earths' being folded out of the JB. One pair of these CPCs are actually line conductors... it's the...

It's not worth working for a team like that, always a mission to get the most basic materials to to the job, then pressure from them when jobs haven't been done. I've worked for such a crowd, ended up takng in my own instruments, plant and PPE, which the site manager and my manager ended up...

My mate has went through 2 MK 50A shower switches. His shower draws 50.5A and his son spends half an hour in the shower
