I have a woodwork dust extract system. It is triggered by a low voltage sense wire circuit Thinking be much easier instead of having cord pull swiches on the sense wire to put in a remote controlled relay ... thinking of using one of these -...

The earth rod was installed on bare land … no risk of hitting services. Impedance was tested by the electrician before the connection was made. The install was completed & tested. So all the decisions regarding where & if an earth rod can be installed have been made. The question I was looking...

Information question. My house was on a local earth rid as on temporary 30A supply. Had it changed to permanent supply and PME. From the house, I have an RCD type A protected armoured cable feeding an outbuilding, and this was changed so the house earth is exported to that building (was...

Not sure what you mean by a ‘20 mm tho box’. Do you have a link for one ? sort of assuming you might mean one of these …. Ideal need 20mm female threaded ….. otherwise I guess I’d need to solvent weld on sone cable glands...

Used PAR38 many times, but for spotlights though, it’s wide spread flood, long throw lighting I need.

Thanx … but that does not meet need of having to change the floods, corroding and no longer waterproof.

I have a number of Halogen outside floodlights, these are die cast bodies … bought as good quality at the time. They have suffered in salt air environment so need to change them, so will obviously move to LED now. The existing lights had 20mm female thread so I connected up with 20mm nylon...

Thanks to all for helping clarify my understanding. Wylex 63A 30mA type A installed this morning, replacing the type AC Hot Tub feed so might as well be as safe as possible.

Agree … my error

OK electrician here today referred to them as curves …. I just followed that. However the Q is Type A or Type AC. …. Understand now that is the correct terminology … Thnx

So swapping out to a type A is a good idea.

No it was relating to RCD

I just looked at note I have- that is correct. So swapping to type A is a better option ?

I just went and looked my RCD is definitely Type AC The symbol on it is as per: The note he left shows to change to type A. So I incorrectly compared A and C … Should have compared A and AC (have updated)

Scenario … a pair of wooden outbuildings, are fed from an 30mA RCD in the house, from the outbuildings a small consumer unit divides it up … couple of AC sockets and lights in out buildings. Then an armoured cable out to a decking area for a 32A hot tub. The HT has local earth rod. Previously...

This is a detached house, I don’t want to fit an outside aerial, and there is no cmineynor suitable wall. If I were to fit ‘on’ a wall I’d need to add 10’ pole . My choice is a loft aerial, I’ll see if I can optimise direction and pitch to make sure it as good as can be. I contacted ‘Aerials &...

I don't wish to mount it outside ... only possible locations would put it lower than it is now. Thanks for the suggestion of Sat dish or freely TV .. .prefer to stick with Freeview. I'll try a test & adjust in case I can improve .... perhaps it has moved since install.

Cable already in place - pre-wired with CT100

Unfortunately not an option. This was why on Aerialsandtv. I saw that XB10A is ideal for loft mount. quality allways shows as over 95%

I did look .. nothing on playstore …maybe not available for Android
