    Max Wattage Allowed On Lighting Circuit.....

    I was thinking firstly of 2x300w floodlights, surly the PIR comes into it, if it was only capable of switching 200w for example sticking 2x500w lights on it would burn the contacts out surly (or worse!)

    Max Wattage Allowed On Lighting Circuit.....

    Nice one guys, on the fused spur....I have one in the loft that used to be a immersion heater spur from the fb which now feeds the boiler in the loft. Is this a possibility? I'm sure the boiler is rated at way below 3A's

    Max Wattage Allowed On Lighting Circuit.....

    Hiya guys, hoping someone can help me, I'm relocating a floodlight on the side of my house, it is activated by a seperate PIR. I'm tempted to when I relocate the light add another at the adjacent end of the building. I'm unsure what wattage I can total with the PIR and my lighting circuit (my...

    Plasteing Cracking Above Doors/Windows (Pics included)

    The second pic is the top of the first pic yeah, not sure if they are stud walls, I think most of the walls are drylined (if thats the method where they dab the stuff and stick the bored to it!) But this around the door feels/sounds too hollow.

    Pick some holes - my plumbing-copper/soldered joint content!

    The maze behind the kitchen unit (wanted to hide as much as possible) I've not done a lot with copper before, the first stuff I did was with those Yorkshire fittings, I didn't get on with them and ended up draining the system down and adding solder, nightmare. :lol: At the notches in the...

    Plasteing Cracking Above Doors/Windows (Pics included)

    Hiya peeps, my house in the last 5 years has slowly been getting worse, always above the doors and windows and in some places presumbably on joints between boards, I've managed to patch it up in places but i'd really like to get to the bottom of why this is happening and a way of fixing it...

    Help Needed In France, Just Had A Nasty Shock......

    Thanks guys, thinking about my post that makes more sense that indeed the pipes are earhed due to the potential difference between the drum/chassis of the machines and the copper pipe. The house is a large house that seems to be split in two, with two seperate c/u in each end of the house...
