thanks. I should do but be taking the p I would have left it to them, might as well learn a bit

edited. One thing at a time!

Do I need to take one of the twin core off the double socket and come back from the next socket (after the switches)?

Dishwasher and fridge

Sorry if not v clear. The double socket has 2 - 2.5mm going to it After thinking (and chiseling) im going to continue with two lots of 2.5 twin Is that correct? Do I need to take one off the double and circle it (another not clear question)?

cheers, dual box it is heres one - I'm branching off a double socket to the grid switches Can I use 2.5mm 2 core earth and single live from the double socket, sharing the neutral / earth or must I use 2.5mm twin / earth for both switches?

Hi Prior to tiling! I'm currently chiselling space for a couple of 20a switches. I'm unsure which switches to go for, seems a lot of space for 2 switches so.... Can i use these grid switch type instead in one box? seems obvious but first time in 20 years DIYing i've had to do this :) Also...

yeah, might help, no idea at present.

Asking for a friend. Oil heating - when the heating is on (morning) and someone runs a bath or has a shower the pressure drops on the boiler and cuts out, the boiler then needs to be topped up (pressure) before it kicks in again. I thought the water pressure (flow) to the shower/bath needs...

Hi I have a Heatrae Sadia and the immersion hasn't worked for a while so I replaced the thermostat and still nothing Are these stats straight forward to wire up, it seemed it when I did it, just wondering if the last one was wired up wrong way, there is power. Any ideas?

I explained that there were sockets I would have got rid of as there were obviously too many and should I need to do so I would use an extension lead Im sure if you use an extension somewhere I have seen 2 lots of double sockets a few inches above the same in a small lounge which is...

cheers plenty of sockets etc I went round with a layout marking where each socket was and thought plaster over that, and that and........ nice to have enough but I hate sockets in view everywhere, id rather have an extension lead

cheers will get someone in to tidy up if nothing else

Hi Am buying an untouched 70s property soon and have looked at the wiring behind a socket and it looks good but what should I look for when deciding whether to go for a rewire? It has a recent meter but the fuses are the old style so it could do with a modern fuse box

okay, compressions are a no go, ive never had one leak but do know about access issues! might look into plastic but have seen a couple of these blow without much pressure, could be a goer thanks for the info
