Totally understand mate. I did switch to 1 and 3 and it seems to work now.
i am not an electrician, i am just doing it myself to save a little money with the good help from this fantastic forum and members.
Im only doing things i know cant and wont kill my house or my self, so the bare...
hi thanks,
i just went with the live terminals as i thought the thermostat is being used as an automatic switch so to speak
so going off the diagram and what you see, do i use 1 and 3 instead of 1 and 4 with my live in and out?
Hi,
me again 😊
i have purchased an eclipse tr-010x (Hopefully lets me upload downloaded image off internet)
i have the following;
13A plug,
wired with 1.5 3 core wire,
through a waterproof screw connector,
into a sealed box with thermostat screwed to the top.
i have a 1.5 3 Core wire...
Thanks for all the input lads. This job was completed safe and sound.
i now have another snag on this job
i have purchased what i think to be 2x inline wifi switchs.
i thought to myself simply adding it in as a “break” in the circuit operated by the power going to my leds would do it...
Hi, this is my second post here please do not bite. I had fantastic responses from previous post that put me right and everything has been fantastic since. Thank you again.
i have a 2.5mm ring on a 32a breaker going into my shed and into my man cave (both joined onto each other)
had no...
For the record,
i have the outer edge on its own “bank” or “daisy chain” as i call it (probably not the right term)
and the inner bank of lights on its own too..
the dimmable aspect is purely for certain use, ide have it fully lit if its not in use so it looks nice, but sometimes its nice to...
thank you for the in depth reply , that makes perfect sense , i have soft start dimmer switchs in the house designed for low voltage dimmable led gu10 bulbs , and your answer is in line with what i was trying to ask in simpleton terms (im a newbie to all the electrical terms)
respect, thank...
Completed electrics in outdoor build. 3amp fused spur worked a treat. I think i have 16x 7watt led bulbs.
thank you for the information - wouldnt have done it without finding out first..
1) is 3amp fuse ok? They are running ok so im assuming it is?
2) the bulbs are dimmable, has...
the 2.5mm ring on 32amp breaker in circuit board is 100% a complete ring with zero spurs coming off. I done it myself. (In my man cave / garage)
so in this case i just needed to know if it was safe and if it was, what was the best way to do it.
as i have read on these replys, im listening...
this is for myself mate i am not a sparky but i know the basics its simply for myself and for future reference
is this because of the fitments people are saying are really small these days?
more people are saying 1mm over 1.5mm, i will use 1mm no problem, its only for some spotlights in a...
Was only using 1.5mm because thats all i know of tbh.
always told 1.5mm for lighting and 2.5mm for sockets in general household electrics.
i think ill go for the 1.5mm only because i already have a huge reel of it.
so 1mm wore in future would be ok for LED spotlights?
would it...
thanks
so i can spur off one of my socket in my man cave on the ring connected to the 32amp Circuit Breaker on Fuse Board.
from that with 2.5mm wire to my switched fused spur with 3amp fuse and then 1.5mm coming out to my lights?
just confirming before i do this im about to do it today...
