Thank you. Currently there is a block/box about 2 metres away from the Baxi with a 5 core cable going to the Baxi. Brown, Blue, Green/Yellow go to the L/N/E labelled terminals in the block/box fed from the Fused Spur, then Black is labelled "Switched Live" and Grey is labelled "Switched Return"...

Hi all, Does anyone know if the Drayton Wiser Thermostat Kit 2 (2 channel) can be used on a Combi Boiler? I know the Kit 2 is meant for Biflo Central Heating and Hot Water but I only want/need the central heating control (which is usually Kit 1) I've inherited a Kit 2 so hoping to use it...

Thanks all, going to see if I can get it out the wall lower first and hopefully should then be able to then get a tall standpipe in.

Thanks for the response. The current waste pipe exiting the house potential could be lowered as much as I want on that wall, I assume there wouldn't be a problem if I drilled a new hole out below it and moved everything down, then use the highest standpipe I can get in there? Not sure if there...

Hello, I'm looking to install a Washing Machine in a new location where there is no current waste pipe. The Washing Machine will be about 3 metres from the nearest waste/soil pipe that exists the house. The run is easy/straight, the only issue I have is figuring out how to approach the trap on...

Thanks oldbuffer. I've double checked the radiator valves just now and none of them have a drain off on them. I'll follow your great guide and try and get it drained, I'm just surprised there isn't one, doesn't make sense to me not to have one. Regarding fitting one, I was thinking of replacing...

Hello, I'm looking to move a radiator, or potentially two radiators to new positions. The issue I'm having is I can not seem to find a drain off cock anywhere on either the flow or return, I've had most of the carpets and floorboards up checking the runs to see if I can find any but I can't, I...

At the moment it's one ring (CU > Bed 1 > Bed 2 > Bed 3 > Kitchen > Dining > Lounge > CU) all wired under floors except kitchen which is a concrete floor so they have gone up the loft then returned back down. Lights are run in the loft through ceiling roses. My thinking was the ring would be...

Thank you, noted. What do you think of other things? Any help is appreciated.

@oldbutnotdead nothing really helpful so far. Sorry I've put too many details for you to read, I just wanted to put as much down as I can so everyone can get a good visual on the current and new potential setup. If you do have any input/suggestions/concerns on what I've stated as the...

:LOL: Not mining a farm, just running lots of hosted VoIP clusters/servers (among other things). They're pulling between 2500/2800w total on average when checking and adding up my various rack UPS load readings, so maybe not quite 3000w. As far as the electrics - Telling the electrician to...

Hello, Sorry this is quite along post. I purchased and moved into a 3 bed bungalow last year, the electrics are original from the late 80's except the kitchen has had sockets changed to doubles at some point, a shower has been added about 5 years ago and the consumer unit has been updated...

Thanks. Will take a bit of getting used to, I keep thinking they aren't working.

It looks like it was a faulty panel - I got another kit today and followed the same process, this time when confirming devices I got: Net RKP> ........ 1 Exp> 1....... All the Richochet devices learnt fine. I've tried defaulting the other panel but it is still the same. Not sure how I...

Hi all, I have brought a Telxeom Elite 64W kit with wireless keypad, wireless bell and 3 wireless PIR's. I'm having an issue setting it up. I have no wired equipment, just what comes with the kit. Before I powered it up I used the supplied cable to connect the back of the keypad to the...

Not that I know of. I just told him what I wanted to do and asked if that was alright he said it was fine. That's the thing - it was checked before I moved in, I have a copy of it done in December. That's one of the reasons I was questioning myself and wanted to make sure I wasn't wrong before...

Yes.

Both 32A.

Hi, I recently moved into a rented house and decided to fit a 1 gang to 2 gang socket converter in the conservatory. When attempting to isolate the sockets at the consumer unit I seemed to discover what I believe are issues. The main one being I had to turn off 2 MCB's to isolate the...
