Ok, thanks. Ref SMPS power supply, apparently EMI/RFI can be produced due to the current being switched on and off sharply. Therefore, EMI filters and RF shielding are needed to reduce the disruptive interference.

The 'tinnitus' comes on when there and goes when I am not, albeit it can stay with me for sometime afterwards and take some time to go.

I will look into that, thanks, because my utility provider doesn't seem interested in discussing the issue. I may raise an interference issue once I have exhausted the issue with my ISP, which I think I have because I can't see them giving me any more visits from BT. As far as they are...

Thank you. Right before a lot of it there were Fibre works done in the pavement at the end of my drive, the rest of the street seem to be taking the Fibre along the pylons overhead. My bungalow and next door the Fibre is not overhead but underground. I feel a bit better at my few doors down...

Yes, but once posted, it's posted..

Electrics? I am sorry if this is in the wrong section, but I am trying to get back to living in my (80's built) bungalow but it is 'ringing' and I am not able to get any sleep there now or spend any length of time in it without hearing the ringing after a while. This started since Fibre street...

Been there, except I fell through and landed up on the bathroom floor, after feeling 'lucky' I had landed in the only area on the floor that didn't have the washbasin, loo, bath, or shower I found I was straddling the electric cables! Got a local plasterer to quote and he sorted it out for me...

Just turned the cross head screw, as I had done many times before, but this time I flushed the toilet in between turning it all the way up and then down again, so I could gauge exactly the result, and the level is NOW BACK TO HOW IT SHOULD BE; brilliant! It was so simple! (but not for me), and...

Yes, thanks, the screw is at it's limit to get the water as high as it can go. I tried that 1st. The water level is significantly lower since the new flat valve from the overflow pipe than it was. I expected it be at the black mouldy limescale line again but it's much lower, about 2inches below...

Ok, thanks, it flushes fine when I hold down the float valve to let the level raise a little more just over the float. So how can I get the new float valve to do it's job of letting the water go that little bit higher? It seems that's all that's needed?. So the siphon may have been incorrectly...

Ok thanks, that's the green capped part..? (Excuse my poor terminology and understanding, and thanks so much for the help!). Could that have been the problem all along. i.e could it cause the cistern to keep filling?.

Can anyone help. Recently had an overflowing toilet cistern, (2 days ago), the toilet was flushed and the cistern level kept rising, I tried lifting the float/valve (sorry, I don't know the correct name) but the water didn't stop gushing out of the outside overflow toilet pipe. I had to call a...
