Hi, A few weeks ago, ADT serviced my alarm and changed the battery. Since then, but not every day, around 14.00hrs +-5 minutes, I have been getting a BAT- alert, followed a few minutes later by a BAT+ alert. There are no other log entries around this time. After viewing the log, the system sets...

Does anyone know how ADT's RRI system communicates with the panel (Galaxy G2)? In particular if there is any aspect of the local phone installation that might interfere with correct operation - call blockers, instant pickup answer machine, etc? Thanks,

Does anyone know of a supplier that holds type B 30mA DP RCDs of any make, as required for EV charging points? I can't find any on TLC, YESSS or CEF web sites. For that matter, I can't find them listed on the common manufacturers' web sites either. (MK, Wylex, Eaton, Hager) Thanks

So there I am doing IR tests on an existing lighting circuit prior to moving it from a BS3036 CU to a new RCBO CU. All lamps, tubes, dimmers etc. removed, checked for caps in the fluorescent fittings etc. All light switches on. L-E checks OK, N-Es check OK, L-N - Zero Ohms! WTF? Did a...

I need my ADT panel moved 20" up the wall to make way for a new consumer unit etc. I'm more than capable of doing it myself (I've designed alarm systems and panels in the past and when the panel was installed they used all the existing wiring that I had already put in) but I was wondering...

Hi, My kitchen was tiled some years ago with 6"/152mm tiles, from Cristal. These are now longer available and the best/only match for colour and texture are 147mm. I have a suspended, illuminated ceiling which I want to replace with Parador panels and more modern lighting, and this will...

SGN/Essex Utilities are replacing all the gas mains round my way at the moment and today it was my turn to get my pipe changed by shoving the new pipe up the old. So having got the new pipe through with little difficulty - just had to blow the rust out of the old one with compressed air, the...

OK. I'm about to tile my bathroom floor. Sub-floor is down (12mm WBP on 18mm floorboards, screwed at 200mm spacing). Tiles will be 33cm x 33cm grey ceramic with matt finish. BAL Rapidset flexible to fix them, BAL Superflex Wide Joint grey grout. Do the tiles need sealing? If so, what...

There are several posts on this forum that say that diversity can't be applied to induction hobs as they boost the output of one ring when not all are in use. This does not make any sense to me at all! Think of the thermodynamics: Once the item(s) being heated is up to the temperature the...

Hi, My 13 year old Ocean Style FF needs replacing. I have 3 quotes of very similar prices, and two boilers have been suggested for my 3-bed mid terrace 1930's house: Worcester-Bosch Greenstar Junior 28i Glowworm Flexicom CX30 on paper both seem similar, so how to choose? All...

Hi all, I need to identify an enclosure that will take a standard DP RCD, and has a cover of some sort over the RCD, ideally lockable. It needs to be large enough to mount a 63A SP+N industrial socket on the side and it needs to be metal both to support the socket to terminate the incoming...

I'm in a bit of a quandry. My aged, partially sighted aunt needs to get power to a pain relief heat pad and a high power magnifier to be used when sitting in her lounge. The only wall adjacent to where she sits is entirely taken up with a radiator - the only position for mounting a socket...

Can anyone enlighten me as to the intention of 608-08-08(ii) with regard to the length of the cable? 25m+/- 2m? so minimum length of 23m - why??? Maybe it's to give you time to notice if you drive away without disconnecting? Thanks,

How do I view a user's profile, eg to get his e-mail address? There is no link from the poster's name in the threads and I cannot find any option to access any profile other than my own. Thanks,

Can anyone recommend a good calibration service? My Alphatek Easitest is due next month. Cheers

What're the acceptable & best ways to remove a borrowed neutral to an upstairs landing light that is two way switched with the live feed coming from the downstairs lighting circuit and only the strappers running between floors? Currently, earth and neutral are both borrowed from the upstairs...
