    Drayton Wiser BlueTooth

    2290M Just fitted one of these. Got the iphone App connected to the stat. All working ok. Tried to install/connect to it on another phone, but it asks me to create another account. (couldn't see a login option) Am I able to connect more that one phone? Oh well, at least it makes setting up...

    Consumer Unit options preping for upcoming work

    As you are discovering, moving the supply and CU is a very costly exercise. (some would say waste of money) I do hope there is a very good reason to move it!? Do you want a door way there or something?

    Consumer Unit options preping for upcoming work

    so where is the new dno fuse and meter going to be? In a cab outside, near your front door ? I think you need to consider ways to run a cable. (could be 3 tails, or 1 round SWA) between the new supply and your existing CU. Say just below ceiling level. It's probably going to be ugly Your CU...

    CLOSED - Moving main fuse and meter board

    I think its now normal to have the fuse and meter in an outside meter box. (get on with it before they approve the idea of having a box sticking out your garden!) Your electrican will have to run a cable between that box and the CU. I guess you will have to consider where you want the meter box.

    FCU not permitted for immersion heaters, really?

    TBH I have some 2.5mm T&E (it's actually bigger) going to an immersion of 2011 vintage. I don't recall a fight with the cable clamp

    Kitchen wiring for hob and oven

    Probably a professional. It has the advantages of: 1) The wires are going to stay where they are when doing them up 2) allows you to get more wires into the junction. 3) Better electrical joint (particularly when used on a socket ring) as there is no actual joint on that bit of wire, just a tap...

    Kitchen wiring for hob and oven

    I'd go with a full powered hob. You have a 32A supply. in the unlikely event you have problems, some hobs have program options to limit their current anyway. or just don't use as many 'hot plates'

    LED FloodLights

    Can't say I have noticed a different spread of light with them. They are certainly worth trying before throwing away a quality fixture, and replacing it with something that will only last a matter of months.

    Wi-Fi Extender sockets

    Not included in the plan. I renewed in May. And I was specifically looking for it. Anyway, I've got the BG socket working again. On the same SSID. Getting 10Mbps in Kitchen which is adequate. (nothing without repeater) Think I need to put it back to another SSID, to prevent closer devices to...

    Wi-Fi Extender sockets

    Wi-Fi Extender sockets

    Existing router is an EE smart hub plus (few months old) There is just one dead spot , so wanted to put the booster in the middle. I think it use to do the trick in terms of WiFi range when first installed. However I was never convinced the phones switched between the WiFi networks in a...

    Wi-Fi Extender sockets

    Turning the mcb off and on has got some life back. Need to use iPhone to setup, not Win11. Once setup, I get a fast flashing blue light (which I think means its not connected to router)

    Question on sub-distribution boards

    Arh. Sounds all good then regarding my worries. They aren't valid. Bit surprised there is no 30mA RCD in the garage protecting the garage sockets. Do you plug anything interesting into the garage sockets? Lawn mower, extension leads etc....
