    Neff Dishwasher fills water then stops; stays cold

    Starts cycle - then doesnt heat. There are lots of clicks but no other action. No heating or advancement. No obvious visible problem with circuit board; motor doesnt turn. Noticed the polystyrene float is missing. Some leakage from front - but the seal is warped - so probably that (not...

    50W 12V Downlights

    No I havent. Ding Bat was right. So I'm about 50% out. So 10 lights not twenty. So 500W. Still a lot!

    50W 12V Downlights

    We have 600W at present. But as you say we never have them on at the same time. Presumably I don't then add the low voltage bulbs each at 50Ws. Or do I?

    50W 12V Downlights

    I am fitting downlights in our living room. The guides say 1.5m sq per 50W light. This will mean we need 20 downlights. I was hoping to daisy chain from the existing rose light (which we will be removing). What is the limit I can fit, and how do I work out what that limit is?

    Halogen Ceiling Lights - insulation on live wire melted

    Thanks. They put in 12V 50W bulbs. The wiring is mostly contained within a white sleeve (which I assume is the heat sleeve). There is no loft insulation.

    Halogen Ceiling Lights - insulation on live wire melted

    We have just had a disasterous building company install a bathroom for us. In the end we had to ask them to leave. I am gradually looking at their work to see what needs to be redone, and what can stay. Today one of the ceiling halogens stopped working in the bathroom. We replaced the bulb...

    Bathroom Extractor with timer

    Many thanks for your comments. I am not aware of any other switch. It sounds very much as if I should get an external electrician in to survey their work. This is not the only problem that I have had with their work. Could you tell me what my LABC is?

    Bathroom Extractor with timer

    My builders have provided only a switched live and neutral wiring to the fan, and have ordered a fan with a timer. I may be completely wrong, but don't you need to have a permanent live as well as a switched live if you expect to have the fan continue after the light switch is turned off...
