Cheers I really appreciate the help. It looks perfect, the one on the link is for 22mm pipe so just need to check they do it in 15 mm. Thanks again

Just seeing if anybody has any experience with installing flow switches and could recommend one. I am planning on installing a flow switch on the cold feed to a shower (15mm), to bring an inline 4 inch fan on. The wattage of the fan should be no more than 50w. Having had a little look at some on...

Thanks to everyone who responded will definitely put outlet at the side. Just found out there is also a integrated dishwasher so will do the same for that. Thanks again.

Thanks for the fast responses, i should have been a bit clearer in my question. The reason for asking is, I was unsure there would be adequate space behind the appliance for a socket? and also how easy are integrated appliances to remove if access is required to said socket?

My thoughts exactley.

Hi all, Just seeing if anyone can help me? I have been asked to install an integrated fridge freezer as part of a new kitchen area. I plan to install a fcu above the worktops but was just checking what would be the best practice for supplying the appliance. By this i mean single socket behind...

Well he could get a qualified electrician in to make sure everything is safe with his fixed wiring or if you want to be pedantic get a cheap multimeter and check the R1 and R2 thanks for the sarcastic reply!

I would change them if it were me as it is possible there is high resistance in the sockets. But I would also check that the correct cable has been installed, the zs reading is nice and low and the voltage is not to high.

Phone cable is definitely not suitable as it missing a pair I think. Depending what the network is to be used for I would think Cat 5 is more than adequate. The reason for this is unless the rest of the network is cat 6 its only as good as its weakest link. But do bear in mind what electronicsuk...

Yes they will do the trick. Make sure you try and put the transformers on top of the insulation. Not that critical if they are electronic but important if wire-wound. Hope that helps.

I have to been to university and gained an HND in Business and finance. I then decided a change of direction in my life. The best way would be a JTL apprenticeship which is what I did. You are not to old nor does it matter that you have been to UNI. You will find unless an employer is willing to...

I would be tempted to use something like the click connectors then in future you can easily remove them as well if you need to. check the link http://www.tlc-direct.co.uk/Products/TLCT100C.html?source=adwords&kw={keyword}&gclid=CLnzm9Ci4KYCFc0e4Qodp1KS1g hope this helps.

Thanks for speedy replies. I was thinking about £150 which for this I would include all fiirst fix and socket fronts and switches the only extra would be the cost of the downlights.

Hi just after a bit of advice regarding how much to charge. I have been asked to install 4 down lighters and two sockets in a garage that is having half of it converted into a usable space. There is already an rcd protected dis board in the garage and already has a socket outlet and lighting...

A quick question for lectrician where does it say it is no longer acceptable to run an earth from alternative places. I am not trying to be some sort of smart arse and catch anybody out I am genuinely interested (everyday is a school day). Thanks in advance.

Couldn't agree more and like an idiot I took the feed in my own loft from upstairs lighting Doh :oops:.

I would always fit square d domae boards myself. I only really work in commercial and industrial environments and our company always uses schneider group distribution equipment (Square d, Merlin Gerin). Never any problems very good quality.

I was going to suggest exactly what sparkwright had written as numerous times I have been to faulty flood lights to find the pins not located in the lamps correctly. hope this helps.

The official line is as many sockets as you want providing the floor area does not exceed 100m2 and as mentioned you take into account the load going to be put on the circuit. It is also recommended to install 4mm radials in kitchens as it can be difficult to balance the load on a ring.
