Thanks John. Been thinking about this all night, because what the second guy said is confusing me. Basdically, I can have a dedicated cooker circuit connected to a cooker switch that has a single socket built in and I can use this socket to power either the extractor or ignition. But, I can't...

Right - second electrician just left. He said either way should be OK, but that I couldn't join the spark and extractor from a dedicated cooker circuit, but I could plug one of them into the cooker socket (confused by this, but sure it's what he said). He's quoted £50 per item to install, plus...

Any pros out there? Electrician coming at 5.

The lighting installation is (I think) just an extension of the existing radial supplying downstairs indoors lights using 1.5mm cable. This was already installed when I moved in though, so am not completely sure on this. I would assume it follows on from the bathroom light as this is the...

Long time reader, first time poster, so go easy please! I know this has been covered previously, but I need it spelling out to me 'cos I'm a little confused :oops: I want to move the washing machine to a brick outhouse which currently has a light installed but no sockets. I was under the...
