supposed to, as well as imports at different times of day for flex tariffs.

I think they would want to install a SM to allow flexible tariffs

Have a look at Ryobi, or Lidl / Aldi

It was discussed several times in the PV section . Might cost you a registration fee of, I think, £250. 15p a KW is better than the last few years of the FiT.

what, with so many so called electricians telling customers if the board isn't metal it's a fail...

try reading the thread properly.

around my way, there are usually fixed to a wooden backboard, which is screwed to the 'fabric of the building'. You can see the board in the top photo. The only thing you can really do is contact DNO and ask them to come out and have a look at it. If you provide them a nice external meter box...

Not that unusual in older property. Worst place I've found CO is an upstairs back bedroom. It does look like whoever fitted the kitchen might have moved the equipment, or the kitchen was fitted first, we shall never know the answer to that. I can't think of anything you could throw at DNO to...

Think you have just got lucky 😀. During COVID assessments were missed, but my own were back to normal since then.

Give the lad a chance, at least hes here asking questions

I suspect it will work fine, especially if using a smooth walled pipe. The airflow part of F is really aimed at new builds , which are far more airtight than existing buildings. My own house was built in 1886, airflow is not an issue as there's ruddy draughts everywhere :D

better off with Trading Standards or whoever the company is registered with, but, being Scottish, that is not a requirement north of the border. However, as the company has voluteered to fix the problem themselves, then it's not that likley that anyone would do anything, which is a sad state of...

Check a Trade is not a trusted organization. The remove all negative comments as the contractors are their customers, not the public.

whilst the crimps are fine, electrical tape has no recognised insulation capabilities. There is a such a thing called Alpha tape, which does have tested insulation properties, but mostly we use 'non maintenance' junction boxes these days for such repairs, and most electricians carry a few...

this is always a little confusing, but the 16mm T&E will have a sufficient size cpc for the ampage carryng capacity of the cable, as have all cables. Is there a main earth terminal by the Switch Fuse?

average shower life is around 10 years, so probably due a new one.

Flame effect 😀

Not seen one for years, dint see many fan heaters either these days. I made the mistake of turning on a fan heater that no one had cleaned for years, the thick layer of dust nearly caused a fire..

simple answer is yes you could, we used to fit 300/500w halogen floodlights for security to houses, so 200 W should not be an issue n it's own right. However, you have to get a cable down from ceiling into wall, so it may well be easier to lift floorboards and find a suitable socket circuit to...
