I hear this argument a lot.... I bought my first house in 1983 for 9.5K seems cheap but it was a run down doer upper in a poor street and I had to save up for a 5% deposit. Interest rates were in double figures and the house was unheated apart from a coal fire and a HW cyl with immersion. No...

Just reviewed the solar system and seems fine. All planets revolving in their orbits around the sun....

It does seem that the gap between working and non working people is getting narrower to the point, as the title of this thread says, why bother working anymore. 2 words - self respect

Use the term 'engineer', in this case, with a massive pinch of salt

I needed wifi in my outbuilding as we use it for airbnb. too far for wifi from main house and not practical getting a cable inside. I fitted and enclosure to the outside of the building where there was a supply and fitted a plug in TP link adaptor with built in antenna, ran a cat5e from the main...

As others have said, you need to get it tested by a competent spark!

I am toying with the idea of a self install but using some of the output to feed a large HW cylinder. The water could be heated from PV via 3KW element and the water circulated round rads. Maybe a 2nd cyl for DHW or would the pre heated water work with the gas boiler? For me with a combined...

Welcome. I too started with 14th edition. Short lived as 15th came in the next year :) I am also in North Wales - Holy Island off Anglesey

All I said was they looked like Logic range due to chamferred top but yes you are right they have red marker..... eyesight not the best. I suggest the OP takes it off and has a look at whats written on the back!

looks like MK logic to me

rated at 3000w so shouldnt pull more than 12 or 13a.

cant imagine a domestic pressure washer pulling more than 32a. have you tried the machine in another socket on a different circuit? that way you can eliminate the machine as being faulty

To re coil, just repeat the steps taken to uncoil it in reverse sequence.

cant see why not. seems best option.

Welcome to the forum. Envious of your set up. Not long bought a very big house and just had new roof so asking myself why didnt I get solar while I was at it. Especially now the big bills are rolling in.

Diversity rule is (unless its changed): first 10a plus 30% of remainder. so, 10a then 30% of 37 is 11 add the 10 total load 21a Diversity rule makes the assumption that you will never use all the rings and both ovens/ grill at once. so a 32A circuit using 6mm cable will be more than adequate...

yes as far as I can tell.

Have installed a few BG units, board with isolator less than £30 and RCBOs £15 to £20. I like them and RCBOs are same size as MCBs

I have a Swann system, has a hub connected to wifi and all 6 cameras wired back to the unit. Cameras have an RCA connection and cable also has 12v supply in separate cores. You can get systems from screwfix for approx £200 with 4 cameras. I had to buy a HDD for the hub. System easy to set up and...

Otherwise a sheet of paxolin/ tufnol with correct sized holes to suit the cables individually. On larger ones I have seen it cut longitudinally down the middle of the holes and fitted in 2 halves to make it easier.
