Oil filled radiator with timer. You'll need to install a 13A socket in the toilet, you can't run it from a lighting circuit. It does not require an electrician to do this, it is well within the scope of a competent DIYer. Where is the nearest 13A outlet? It may be possible to take a spur from...

If the seller has read this forum he'll tell you that the asking price takes into account the condition of the electrical installation, so no reduction, as often advised here.

Always better to leave colours to the wife!

There are ways to extend a busbar - that's not one of them, it may not be making good contact in the terminals and will be physically stressing the devices. Devices not aligned and busbar not fully inserted. Where's the busbar cover? Given that BG busbars are not exactly expensive and are...

Hire a portable table saw with a suitably fine blade?

And nothing that was done could change the power going through the consumer unit as all the DNO work would (should) have been on their side of the meter. Uprating the DNO fuse will not make one iota of difference to the power being drawn by the installation. Something else must be going on...

The UPS is a separate unit from your GTI? A proper online UPS does double conversion - AC - > DC - > AC so the output waveforms and characteristics are totally separate from the mains input. So whether the input comes from the grid or from your GTI in inverting mode is nether here nor there -...

What type of UPS? True sine-wave?

I wouldn't know, I don't do domestic. It depends on many things, you need to get some quotes. Someone else may have a better idea

Do NOT twist them. Do it as per the photo, which is the correct method.

Note that those converters are fused, so max load across all three outlets is 13A

No, never looked at this topic before.

Oncoming drivers signalling that they are turning (to their) left who then pull across into my lane before turning as they are too lazy/stupid to turn their wheel faster/ to full lock.

Fasthosts have never charged me to transfer a domain name out, the last time I did it was about a year ago. I've not a a problem with them for the 20 or so years I was using their website hosting.

Most ISPs can provide them, with various features from POP/IMAP to use with a standard email client, to full ms exchange. If you're happy with a gmail address then that's is fine, but if you want something more personal and not dependant on Google..... I have a .me.uk domain name from...

No problem getting fluorescent tubes from TLC etc but if going for a new fitting, as mattylad says.

I always get the optional space saver spare kit, having had this experience in the past. I had reason to use it last week. Took 10 mins to fit. If a manufacturer supplied spare is no available I find a suitable wheel & tyre elsewhere. Puncture repair kits are useless for sidewall damage.

Fly gallery? But clearly flies not in use with all those cables in the way
