So because I wanted to wire these lights through a switchbox, which didn't come as part of the kit, it becomes notifiable irrespective of where its fitted because its no longer prefabricated? Taking this one step further and staying in the dining room, if one dispensed with the switchbox...

I'm not trying to nitpick with you personally in anyway here GaryMo, I'm just trying to get it straight in my head :) The second quote(I do realise it wasn't of your own hand) says that pre-fabricated units aren't notifiable, providing that if you are terminating in a kitchen or a special...

The socket outlet was part of a complete re-wire and was signed off by building control at the time. It's the same part P and NIECE registered installer who came back to look at the pond who said to just use the 13 amp socket outlet. He said it was already protected by the required RCD in the...

Why do you say that GaryMo?

Hi Simon, Its actually David doing the writing, didn't see the point in re-registering just for this query, so used Julie's name. Best regards to you and the family I trust your all keeping well. :D Also kind regards to my old adversary BAS too, I hope your keeping well . :D

By "kitemarked" Do you mean CE marked? If so, then yes, the 12v lights are pre-asssembled plug and socket type. The 240V pumps are also CE marked, albeit the flex is in one unbroken length, from pump to switchbox. I did read about special locations, but I am uncertain what actually...

[/url] Thanks Spark123, I tried to read those yesterday and ended up going for the bottle. :lol: The bit that confuses me about my installation is whether it is outside in a "special location" or inside in a conservatory, which I gather may not be notifiable. Most of the kit is inside...

It's a real dogs dinner thats for sure. :lol: :lol:

Just fitted a pond at home and am uncertain whether it is part P notifiable or not. I phoned building control and they said I need to speak to the clerk of the works in charge of electrics, he just happens to be on holiday so the job stops. :lol: I have, 12v submerged lights, 12v deck...

Thanks for the piccy breezer. Mines much the same albeit smaller than your example. The plastic parts you can see above the blue and orange(ish) foam to the right are handles. A cover goes over the foam and the handles then protrude through this. To clean them you pull the handles which...

Thanks for your reply holmslaw, could I just confirm, by "your proposal" do you mean the RCD aspect only or that it's OK to leave the cable laying on the concrete too? Thanks for the link and your advice breezer. The filter I've bought does have a UV, its called a Biosys 2. here it is...

We have a garden pond and we want to fit a filter system. The filter is supplied with water by a 240 volt pump which is submerged in the pond and then returns by gravity. The filter and the power source are both inside a conservatory out of the weather. The pond is about 3 metres away...

We have a projector that we use for powerpoint presentations etc when undertaking training: NEC LT245 I have found it fantastic when doing presentations at various venues - no carting the flippin PC and the light source around all the time (and then it not working when you arrive at a...

Chris De Burgh's 'A spaceman came travelling' And my bestest hymm is 'In the bleak midwinter'

Hey Simon how are you? Well I hope! We have been living on the boat since the first week in December due to having extensive building work done on the bungalow - progress has been slow due to various holdups with the builders, electricians and plasterers but at last things have got moving we...

Err......haven't you heard Joe - it's called global warming :shock:

Thanks for that Stoday.......now I'll just have to sit down and write the bloomin' thing!!!! :wink: :lol: :lol:

Big Spark I'm currently undertaking an environmental module as part of my Masters degree and I have chosen to write about global warming for my assignment. Whilst I have had absolutely no problems in finding articles which support the 'man made' theory and the governments perspective - I am...
