    BT phone line/service 'upgrade'

    I don't think the data is out there yet, as to what a FTTP with phone connection only, would cost. If anyone was likely to get this, it was John, but he seams to have escaped it for now

    BT phone line/service 'upgrade'

    Yeah, I discovered this new feature when I moved to VOIP (plugged into router). They aren't always nuissance. One was a call I was expecting. I think it also comes up with PRIVATE

    Allowable Cooker Connection Unit outlet plate positions behind built-in oven?

    AND Heat. Don't want to get the fuse any hotter than necessary. I fitted an AEG cooker, and the instructions located certain external surfaces would be hot. (near elements i expect) Heat rises, so that location at the bottom seams sensible

    Allowable Cooker Connection Unit outlet plate positions behind built-in oven?

    More to do with the lump on rear of oven and heat. Surprised it doesn’t come with a plug.

    'Isolator'/switch for smoke etc. alarms?

    How often so you need to do maintenance on it ? Once every 10 years! Far more likely to be changing a light fixture

    BT phone line/service 'upgrade'

    They are no longer selling FTTC. You would only be on it if you had an internet connection. EE voip call costs are the same whether dialling a mobile or landline.

    BT phone line/service 'upgrade'

    John I think you are over worrying. While FTTP was initially more expensive (and new build home owners were forced to pay a premium), it is now normalised. If you are being forced to move from copper phone line to FTTP phone only, I don't see why your contract should increase. For people on...

    BT phone line/service 'upgrade'

    ppl won't be forced to have an internet connection. They will however, have fibre into their home, and a box very much like a cut down router to provide the VOIP Unless of course, common sense prevails. It's becoming a problem even getting a phone line with an internet connection these days...

    Reliable shower brand

    There is another resetable trip at a lower temperature. Anyway this 75c sensor rattled. (And made contacts join). It was suggested that when the shower was turned off, temp. In the tank increased and caused failure. Some brands run on apparently to expel hot water.

    Pull cord switch wiring

    Water can cause rust. Or dirt to move around. If you’re good at that sort of thing, you can remove the switch and take it apart and give it a clean with water and fairy. See if that helps Or will just confirm u need a new switch

    5 core induction hob cable (1.5mm?) to 10mm supplied cooker outlet

    well they allow socket rings, so I don't see why they shouldn't allow this! Much more likely to have an open wire on a socket ring

    5 core induction hob cable (1.5mm?) to 10mm supplied cooker outlet

    ebee, I think the hobs already come with the copper links fitted anyway in this case. And you remove them when 'on the continent'. Well some do. I best look at the instructions at the start of this thread to check! EDIT: The neutrals have a link. Lives don't
