    Radiator element tripping the RCD.

    Hi John, I measured the resistance across the L and N and it read 35.1ohms. Luck as it my wife was near Screwfix and picked up another element. All fitted back together now and working fine. Guess it was definitely the element!! But it is a great addition to a towel warmer when you don't...

    Radiator element tripping the RCD.

    Thanks Derry I already did the CU test and it still trips the RCD when only the one circuit is live. I don't have a Megger so I haven't got the ability to insul res check. I just have a standard multi-meter. Is there anything a con check could tell us? Also is it test able on the bench so then...

    Radiator element tripping the RCD.

    Good morning all, I've recently installed a towel rad on the CH system but added a 600w element bought from Screwfix. Last night I went to switch it on and the RCD tripped on the CU. the rad is connected through a timer switch and FCU but the 3 amp fuse doesn't pop in the FCU. I've disconnected...

    Make/break sensor.

    The rotary switch looks like it would do the job. I'll have a closer look when I get the chance later

    Make/break sensor.

    Thanks for your replies. Due to the lay out it pretty easy to bury whatever I use in the wall. I just wanted something that triggers when the gate opens. But will have to operate at 240v

    Make/break sensor.

    Good morning all, I've just fitted a pir light outside my back door but it's just too far away to trigger when someone walks through the gate. I'm am looking at wiring in some sort of sensor on the gate so it will turn the light on when the gates opened. The only one I can think off is...

    Wifi Extender

    I don't really need the through plug either as I have sockets all over the place.

    Wifi Extender

    That's exactly what I have at the minute. I would like 1 of each. So 1 more wifi extender and 1 without but the more LAN ports on the better. I have seen some with 3 ports on but they come in single packs and haven't got wifi.

    Wifi Extender

    I probably need one more wifi extender and 1 repeater. What would you recommend? Obviously I would like the fastest possible.

    I don't understand?

    Wifi Extender

    I bought these and they work a treat. Can I buy more but without the one that plugs into the modem as I obviously don't need another one of those.

    Dual Fuel Towel Radiator

    Good Greef!!! 1500mm x 600mm Ive been looking at the 600w element from screwfix for £43 but if there is a better one out there, I'm happy to look else where.

    Dual Fuel Towel Radiator

    Thanks guys. It's for a utility room. Gonna have a kind of drying room for clothing after a dog walk or my bike leathers if it should rain. Going to plumb it in the CH but also have the electrical element through an FCU off the ring so don't waste money heating the entire house when a quick...

    Dual Fuel Towel Radiator

    Good morning all, Surely there is more too it this than just buy a normal plumbed in rad and actually fit an electrical element? I've got 1 day to prepare for the plasterer to come in and I'm wanting to put a towel radiator on the wall. It would make sense to plumb one into the heating system...

    Which Aerial Amp

    Thanks for all the help. I'm hopefully going to get the splitter delivered today or tomorrow and ill fit it and let you know.

    Which Aerial Amp

    Thanks for the reply Sam. All the coax I've put in the house has been PF100 but the longest run is around 5 meters and was done by an electrician when I had a kitchen extension put on, and it looks like just a cheap one. For £7 I'll give the splitter a go and see how I get on. Hopefully it'll work.

    Which Aerial Amp

    I want to try and get the best I can. How do I find out how good the signal is? I've never had any problems with the picture. I routed the main aerial into the attic and is currently split to supply 2 TVs. But still no problems with the picture.

    Stencil Seal??

    Haha no. My bad wording. I meant wall decal.

    Which Aerial Amp

    Good morning all, As I've been renovating my house I have put aerial points in all the rooms (only had one when I started and that was in the front room). I'm not in a position to connect them all in the attic and was wondering what is a good one to buy? I have electrics in the attic so a...
