    downlights in bedroom

    http://www.planningportal.gov.uk/uploads/br/AD_P_wm.pdf ELV lighting installations, other than pre-assembled CE marked lighting sets are listed as a special installation (page 8 ). Can't see a mention of anything relating to LV downlighters being added to an existing circuit in a general...

    downlights in bedroom

    LV downlights in a bedroom won't be notifiable.

    what certificate

    Not at all impossible, live testing would go down as a limitation. A satisfactory EICR could still be handed over if the installation is deemed compliant on the basis of what has been tested.

    Panel of Supreme Justices refused the Government appeal

    I asked for some advice with regards to the end cost to the average householder for the FiT scheme (I knew it was less than £10) and this is a reply I got: On domestic bills (it is also effectively added to non-domestic) the average is about £2 a year. You might point out that the...

    Panel of Supreme Justices refused the Government appeal

    BAN, if we lived closer then I'd invite you to put your views forward face to face but alas, we don't so anything you have to say to me you can do it via PM. Anyway, just short of 22kWh, loving it 8) :lol:

    Panel of Supreme Justices refused the Government appeal

    Well, today's looking good 8) Already generated 11kWh and fully expect to break through the 20kW barrier for the first time. Also generated the predicted PVGIS amount for March (262kWh) by mid morning so I'd be expecting ~25-30% increase on the predicted figures for this month. Best thing...

    Panel of Supreme Justices refused the Government appeal

    But that's been the case since FiT's were launched. This decision on it's own won't change that but what it has done is ensure the government can't make retrospective changes.

    Panel of Supreme Justices refused the Government appeal

    My installation. It was accepted on the 11th February 2012 so between 12 December and 3 March cut off date. Took a chance even though 21p/kWh would still have worked, 43.3p/kWh is even better!

    Repair a chip on an acrylic bath

    Thanks Andy. Have you used this product? If so, is it a good match for a standard white acrylic bath? Still, its cheap enough to buy a mix a small amount before using it on the bath. What would you recommend for polishing over the area after the repair.

    Repair a chip on an acrylic bath

    I've just dropped a hinge whilst hanging a bathscreen over my white acrylic bath and it's now left a small chip on the top inside edge. Can anybody recommend a DIY white acrylic repair kit? Thanks all.

    A Minor Electrical Installation Works Certificate will suffice for an addition to an existing circuit.

    Bad to wire a plug like this?

    "ie with a certain length of bare wire showing before each screw terminal?" I don't think a picture would be required, it's pretty self explanatory. I see BAN is being is usual moronic self :roll:

    Adaptaflex fitting

    I'd agree with Mike. My particular use with that opinion in mind is for machinery. Great for emergency stops, guard switches, DC brakes and all manor of control equipment.

    Adaptaflex fitting

    We use Flexicon and I'm pretty sure both the their flexible conduit, glands and fittings are cheaper than Adaptaflex.
