Anyone fitting them as standard yet? Trying to price a job but I'm having trouble even find all-metal (incl cover) pre-wired dual rcd or 'high integrity' boards. Anyone got any recommendations? I guess the wholesalers are trying to clear their insulated stock before offering a range of...

Why was the thread locked? Dear Mr Moderater 11, the thread wasn't going nowhere, the OP said he was going to post pictures so we could have a stab at assessing his DIY rewire and shed some light on the 'advice' he had been given . . . it was actually quite an interesting thread, a bit...

I have had a plumber round to look at an expansion vessel for an unvented cylinder in a rented flat I look after for a friend. It's leaking from and around the pressure release valve. I thought it would a fairly simple job to replace and re-charge but he's telling me the part is obsolete for...
