Well that's what I found, many of the recommendations I found whilst searching for help before starting this thread generally do recommend 6mm t&e to directly wire in a cooker.

Fitted it today, took the back off quick to double check the wiring - is wired as your diagram notes EFLImpudence, many thanks again for looking for that. Got some of the recommended 2.5mm heat insulated flex from local Screwfix. Funny though, was concerned about the wiring, noting that most...

Which way they are wired?

Many thanks for that, not exactly the same but very close, will take a look at the others. Seems the same sort of design so would assume L\N are the same way around.

Thanks for the reply both. No markings on the lid, other than showing how to open the lid... Nothing in the documentation. We have a switched 30amp outlet there for a connection, I was just confused over the cable requirement and the obvious lack of wiring instruction. The hob came today and...

New oven to fit (https://www.currys.co.uk/gbuk/household-appliances/cooking/ovens/hoover-h-oven-300-ho7dc3e3078in-electric-built-under-double-oven-stainless-steel-10207020-pdt.html) - was expecting to use the existing 6mm t&e to fit this but just checked under the wiring cover and it's just...

Thanks all, might try a combination... Of course, if I'd never thought to check the temperature in there then I'd have never known and would be worry free - we've had plenty of cold nights in 15 years and it's never been a problem so far... :?

The pipes in our bathroom are behind a tiled wall, the space they occupy is an overhang and basically a tiny loft crawl space (it's a dormber style house). There is only partial lagging on the cold pipe as far as I can make out. We've never had an issue all the time we've had the house (15...

We have a telescopic loft ladder that I've removed from its mounting so that it can be used free. It has 90mm wide treads that are rounded and comfortable. My parents in law are looking for an occasional use telescopic ladder for access to the loft etc. but all the telescopics I can see that...

Think it was around £250 per side, i.e. £500 front and back. That was around 14 years ago for ours though.

You win the fiver... Actually got a plug in mcb replacement but it's currently still a rewireable... Okay, thanks for the replies guys. Will probably play it safe so they'll have to go without the electrics whilst it's being done. :D

Wanted to change some light fittings, is removing the fuse for the lighting circuit alone safe (given that the neutral is still connected) as opposed to switching off at the main switch? - I've done this in the past without issue but just wanted to know the general concensus. Same with other...

Thanks for the replies. Yep, the attic joists extend out to where they join the roof rafters - which is where the original pitch ends and the flat roof of the dormer begins (underneath the subsequent additional pitch) - and continue out as the construction of the flat roof I assume...

Bump... :D

How do you ever get them back up again though if they are all glued down...?

I had a 3.5 disk drive unit plugged into mine - actually, given that the drive cost more than the Spectrum and actually powered it through the edge connector, it was more a case of the Spectrum being plugged into it. ...had a multiface plugged into it's own edge connector! Edge connector...

Ahh, the fond memories of my Spectrum and a joystick interface hanging off its edge connector... :D
