Hi I brought some of http://www.screwfix.com/p/drawer-system-450mm/16338 ffor drawers for my work bench. I have fixed the the guide rails in place where I want the drawers to be. However am confused as to how do I know the width I need to make my base. DO I just measure the inside width between...

http://www.screwfix.com/p/drawer-system-450mm/16338 Since am not very skilled at wood work, I was thining using these kits to throw together so useable drawers for a work bench I've already built. I Want to know what sort of material shall I use for the back, base and front? I've also had...

Hi I have been told the error code ED4 means it could be either the main board, heater board or the heating element. I was also told it's commonly the heater element. Our machine is an ZWD12270W The NTC appears to be fine as it reacts to temperature change. Tested with .a multimeter on ohms...

yeah ok. I think I might use abit of T &E 2.5mm cable as a cable spiral. Ebay is a dodgy place sometimes what they say in the title isn't necessarily what it says in the description. I always take what they say with a pinch of salt. Not everyone is as simple and honest as me :D

Hi Am thinking of hacking together an inspection camera using raspberry pi and an 3inch monitor perhaps. The inspection camera do they have a bendable and keep it's shape arm or is it just a normal cable? So a bit like those cheap bendable arm lamps. If not I might just buy cheap camera off...

That's very true, however I already have all the qualifications / tools I need to become part P registered at the very least. That includes a 17th edition tester, of course. Thanks for the advice guys. I can always count on old hands to help me out in times of need/ embarrassment. Shouldn't...

Hi guys, I was wondering what do you guys use to cut T&E with a CSA of 6MM and above? If I do become registered, it could be 10mm T &E I'll be cutting with my CK side cutters. I mean 6mm is a little of a struggle for me. I doubt I can cut 10mm without using a hammer. What can I say am weak...

Thanks. What do you guys think shall I use outdoor treated 4x4 wood for the legs?

Hi I've always been interested in wood working. So much so I've decided to do a course in it. I want to make a table like structure with the work top surface cut out so I can hang two plastic trays. I was going to use MDF because it's fairly cheap even from B &Q and easy to cut. However afaik...

HI guys, I'm wondering why doesn't the led on the included wireless pir light up when I walk pass it? On the wired pir it does light up. Am not asking how to program a professional panel , just asking is it possible? I'll Am trying to collar technical on their skype chat

1)does it have a wireless keypad option 2)does it have wired external bell box option If yes to both then I think we have a winner.

What a great idea thats good. Or abit of liquid nail should do the trick lol. Sorry guys I wasn't clear I meant no drilling/ chopping off plaster (which is brand new). After all the drama, they have decided not to fit an alarm for now. Sometimes it's better off you don't know the customer...

Hi I need to fit an alarm system for my sisters new house. She doesn't want me to start drilling holes and removing plaster. Her house is ready to move in I believe so it's fair enough. I don't have a clue which panel I should use since am newbie electrician. I have fitted accenta Gen 4 mini...

Hi when my sister moves into her house the boiler wasn't firing up. There was power to the boiler as the leds lit up. just never fired up. Instead of fixing the problem our friendly engineer just bypassed the timer. he did it for free so we're not really complaining. he didn't seem to have a...

Hi I as wondering if I'm correct the zone circuitry on the main control panel is just a normally closed circuit. I have been told this isn't the case as the PIR sensors are constantly sending signals to report back their status.

Hi Its a rewire am doing an EIC on. I was wondering does the ZS value have to be measured? Am short of time and zs for all circuit can be time consuming then doing by calculation. The LABC is coming TOMORROW!!

what do I score it with though?
