Dont worry sorted....Found my manual the error was air pressure switch. With me messing with the expansion Vessel valve i pulled two pipes off little connectors on the back of the boiler..Re-connected them and its working again :D

Hi To All I have a heatline c24 boiler,The boiler was raiseing in pressure from 1.5 to 3.0 when heating on.I read on here about the expansion Vessel,On checking it had virtually no air in at all.So i released the pressure via the pressure release and used a pump to bring the pressure to 1...

After reading info of this site ( very helpful ) i think i will wire this a different way.If i run the cable from the lights to the switch.Then run a cable off the attic ring into a ceiling rose connection then connect the lights to the ceiling rose it should work instead of running the live the...

The box states transformer free lighting,cant find the instructions that came with it.The information on the downlights themselfs is MAX 50Watt GU10 240v~50 hz.The cable off the attic main runs straight to a switch then to the lights --------cable to switch-------------------goes to lights...

I cut the wire that goes to the lights in the bedroom and run a feed from that to a switch then onto the lights,I'm not at home at the mo so will check what the lights are.Just to also point out i have daisy chained the lights together as per the instructions.Thanks for you quick responses.

The lights dont have an earth,just live and neutral,they have 35 watt halogen bulbs.I have run the lights off the light ring in the attic,running the continuation of the live through a 1way switch.thanks

Thank you for your quick response,I have run the power directly from a mains plug in the house,i have already got the lights working from the shed plug socket but i wanted to use an outside switch instead of going into the shed and turning them on,how do i run the power from the shed to the...
