Thanks Guys. What about Creosote would this be ok to protect, or an exterior wood stain? :roll:

Hi Deluks I'm building a tool store which will be outside. Cheers

Hi Can anyone tell me if you need to protect WPB plywood from the elements or does it do exactly what it says on the tin..... Water/weather proof? Cheers :roll:

What if you do find a gas leak......... Are you allowed to repair it yourself? Or do you have to call in a corgi reg fella with drop tester etc to mend your leak?

All taken in jest :lol: Have a good day. Thanks all.

Wooooo................. :shock: Firstly I have never said I was an electrician. I was purely questioning part p regs from a 'joe puplic' perspective and having read a lot to try and answer the q's, I have never come across the term 'final circuit' only the terms radial and ring main. ...

Thanks for that festa, I was beginning to think this site had a rapidly spreading virus called 'sarcasm' I was going to ask what the live wire did.........? But I won't bother now :lol:

OK point taken. I was just checking.............. ok.

Cheers for that comms :?: While your on... on the inside of a FCU cover it has 1.25mm-1.5mm. Is this the max thickness of cable as I was under the impression that 99% of 13A FCUs would be for spurring off socket ring mains and therefore 2.5mm. Cheers

Hi Just checking what can and can't do within regs and could someone please explain the term 'modifying a final circuit in a kitchen (ie sockets etc)' What is a final circuit please? And does this stop me (competent but not certified) from adding a spur out through the back of the kitchen ring...

Hi :oops: I have a hole in the white plastic coating on my bath (dropped a screwdriver on it ) :shock: It has not gone all the way through but has taken a chunk of plastic off. I don't want to replace it as it is only 6 month old, I was wondering if anyone knew of a filler I could use to...

Thanks for that securespark. So do you think a small tumble dryer would be pulling too much on the supply. The only items on the sockets would be fridge, microwave, washer and tumble dryer. Cheers

Can someone please confirm that the following is correct and legal….. I have spurred off existing ring main through a wall into utility room 1 into a switched FCU, run T&E from this FCU to a new double socket, then run T&E from FCU to another new double socket in utility room 2 and finished...

Hi Can I explain what I have done and could someone please confirm it is safe and legal.......! :?: Spurred off kitchen ring main and run through wall behind into utility room 1, installed a switched FCU (has red light on it) and run the spur into the FCU. Then run cable from FCU to new...

securespark Like I said previously the immersion is in the wrong location. I need isolate the immersion and leave it buried. :arrow: I also need to get power into the utility rooms by either spurring off the ring main at a socket point on the other side of the wall (which is the best option...

Thanks Davelx Can you elaborate on protected FCU....? Am I correct in saying if I spur off and run the cable into a fused control unit I can then run 2 cables out of the FCU to 2 different double sockets or do I go to one socket then spur off that to another socket (like a radial circuit)...

Can someone please tell me if it is ok to spur off a spur or must I extend the ring main? Cheers :roll:

Terminology I have a 2 prong multimeter, thanks What is the best way through the wall? JB on one cable go round the utility rooms and JB back onto the other ring cable? Cheers

There is no label on the CU but I have found which fuse it is on and this has 15 on the switch and I don't believe anything else is on with it. What is a two pole tester? Cheers :roll:
