    Loose Connection

    Oh, I'm sorry.

    Loose Connection

    Any suitable connector will do. These are good - ever so cheap.

    Shed Termination

    If I understand correctly: Why singles? There must be some way to do it without such bends. I don't follow the logic. Do you not earth and terminate correctly other types of cable? Could be.

    Shaver Socket to LED Mirror?

    Other way round ?

    Did this house fire REALLY start because of a turned off Air fryer OR faulty wiring?

    Surely air-fryers should be made of non-combustible material or placed in a non-combustible enclosure.

    2-way switching problem

    They did. :?: indeed. Something is not as it should be.

    Using a double pole swich for outside light

    Yes, of course. Are you saying you have no neutral at the switch?

    Replacing PIR but wires are strange colours!

    Ok. It looks nearly white in my picture. Yes.

    Replacing PIR but wires are strange colours!

    Surely your new PIR just has a black wire instead of a white one - the others are all the same. I am not sure where your "dark grey" comes from.

    Joining 1.5mm cable to 2.5mm?

    Not familiar with that type nor watched the video - but if that's what they are for then yes. It may only require actually being earthed at one end (depending on the installation) but still has to be connected properly at both ends.

    Joining 1.5mm cable to 2.5mm?

    Probably.

    Joining 1.5mm cable to 2.5mm?

    No, that's fine. If you are sure it is before all the outlets then that is a bit unusual. Normally, which you could do, is have a 13A FCU in the house where it joins the socket circuit - a switch is desirable anyway to isolate the outside circuit. Then that will cover the socket in the garage...

    Joining 1.5mm cable to 2.5mm?

    Ok. Well that depends how much load you wanted. Doesn't really matter with 13A fuse limiting the load. That would make no difference and could be worse with more load.

    Cable and insulation

    Yes, I think the plasterboard would be better. That was my point.

    Cable and insulation

    Yes, it seems to me to be better than covered by the insulation. A ring circuit cable is allowed to be "enclosed in conduit in an insulated wall".

    Cable and insulation

    Mmm. Not sure - assuming it is a 32A ring circuit, the cable would be alright anyway with not more than 100mm. of insulation. The plasterboard would seem to be better than that.

    Increase rcd rating?

    That's how it used to be. It is nothing to do with the appliances. RCDs are fitted to the circuits to protect people and must be 30mA. Irrelevant.
