Although considered quite poor in quality, I first noticed them in a 2004 screwfix catalogue, are they a relatively new thing? I know Volex have been making other accessories for a lot longer. Regards

As is the case with my immersion. Supply from cu goes to immersion switch (with neon) on landing and from there cable goes to 20 amp flexible cord outlet in airing cupboard-immersion/airing cupboard is in an occupied bedroom so fitting the immersion switch right next to immersion (although...

Afternoon all I want to install a timeswitch in the immersion heater circuit, I have seen these timeswitches in screwfix, B&Q etc however the rating is 13 amps. The immersion heater rating is 3kw but would a timeswitch of this rating be ok since the circuit s protected by a 16 amp MCB (2.5mm...

Hello Everybody Just saying thank you for all your help. They came to replace the meter yesterday and there was no problem at all, the bloke didn't even bat an eyelid. He fitted the new meter and sealed it (cutout as well). I pointed out the missing screw (he didn't even notice) and said...

Thanks but like I was saying, I was already living there when the cutout was originally installed, would they have a record of this? The meter and cutout has loads of cobwebs,dust etc on them now so they havent been touched for a long time. I have heard of them not been bothered a lot of...

Evening all I am having my meter changed next week for an economy 7 meter. However I am a bit worried about one thing: 12 years back the electricity board installed the present meter and sealed it and the cutout. A month later a friend of my father who worked as an electrician (now...

Thanks everybody for your help Regarding the load the oven and cooker is gas but we have a commercial type dishwasher, glasswasher, chip fryer and several ordinary plug in microwaves.

Sorry it is a public house restaurant I work at (kitchen work) Robinsons Brewery I don't have any intention at all of actually getting involved doing anything with the wiring. I just noticed the setup when an electric urn tripped both the cellar and main RCDs cutting the entire building off...

HI this topic is regarding a previous one I wrote about a little while back so I thought it would be best to explain it in simpler detail in a fresh topic. Anyway setup is as follows: Cutout - Meter - 100mA main RCD - Henley From Henley there is: 1) CU 100mA RCD...

OK then Thanks a lot

Afternoon All I have a CREDA spinner (CREDA DEBONAIR) SERIAL NO. 1181 2990 It is one of those round portable cylinder types but does not have a hose, just a water outlet area which you put a container in front of to collect water. Anyway the problem is it leaks slightly from the side when...

You never know what will happen but he seems confident he will, I don't know whether to think of him as been brave saying that or to think what planet is he living on????? What's everyones view on this?

A chemical addict??????Where do you get that one from??????!!!!! If you are referring to smoking, then look at my post earlier on in the topic (and another topic on this subject I made myself a few months back) and you will find I am a non-smoker!!!

Joe-90, use a bit of common sense. What I mean is I now have to keep getting off my seat in the pub to go outside with the others if I am in the middle of talking with them if they want a fag. Where I work there is often more drinkers outside then in the actual bar inside. Softus, as for...

I put yes and I am a non smoker. I now cannot seem to have a good conversation any more in the pubs now since this ban and I feel that it is affecting the trade like has been said. I know it may be healthier but many people I know think it is a load of sh1te which I agree with totally. I...

Somebody has asked me to do a facebook page so they can send me some pictures and I said I'll get round to it when I can, a few weeks ago I started to sign up but need to complete my registration. I would like to know a few things about it such as: How safe/reliable is the privacy? Is it...

I can't say for sure, but wouldn't the RCD requirement for ground floor sockets/general use sockets apply here as well or is just for domestic premises? (there is a flat above) Either way though, the main RCD is a bit of a nuisance tripping the entire building so surely this could be improved...
