"How was the name 'Armeg' born" perhaps?  Other sponsors use promotional videos with the answer somewhere in the video, see ck tools posts in the competitions forum

Sorry Phil. From your website;

Please tell me Armeg is not short for arm-and-a-leg.  :innocent   :Welcome:

Further to my post above, just spoke with bg nexus tech. They say that it is not necessarily the CSA which is important but more the surface area of the outside surface, as electrons prefer to travel along the surface of a conductor, one of the reasons why stranded wires can carry more current...

I was fitting a nexus 45A cooker switch last week which had 2 earth connections. The metal strip between the two connections was 6mm wide by 1mm thick, and looked like galvanized steel. The instructions said to put an earth in each. But steel is 9 times less conductive than copper. So the CSA...

Sorry, I meant is e the same e as in e=mc^2, energy? Not the speed of light. It is late.

Does e=the speed of light? Can't see how e raised to the power of π times i equals -1, but I am willing to learn. Another Question, who ate all the πs?

Sean Connery decided to surprise his wife by putting up a bookshelf. She came home to find him crying beside a pile of wood below a wall full of holes. When asked what was the matter, he said "I'm ashamed of myshelf"

Or those Duck Tours boats?  http://metro.co.uk/2017/08/30/london-duck-tours-will-no-longer-go-on-the-river-thames-6889880/ Might be going cheep, better be quack.

Was the N clipped to the neutral axis of the joist? 😁

Not necessarily Dave, think of toothpaste tube with the cap off.

Method N, nipped direct. When working out the CSA, remember it is now height X width not pi R squared

I don't have a problem with mandatory 100mA TD RCDs incorporated in domestic smart meters, along with some sort of neutral monitoring in case of loss of PEN and obviously a DP isolation switch. Not sure if the smart meter roll out applies to Scotland, but it makes sense to let the suppliers sort...

I have the feeling they are talking about 100mA up-front RCDs, possibly time delayed if final circuits already have RCDs for additional protection. Since Phil Buckle mentions fire risks. Interesting it comes under energy efficiency, an RCD saves a lot of electricity being wasted, somewhere...

Dartford Crossing, only done it once, gave me the collywobbles

You can threaten to complain without actually doing it. But I see where you are coming from. Seems you can only ask them for their certs, depending on what works they have done, they are obliged (by BS7671, which is not the law) to issue one. When replacing a consumer unit they are also obliged...

Hi Joe, welcome to the Forum. Do you know which scheme/organisation the first electrician was registered with? What work was carried out? and did they leave their work energised ie powered up? Did you pay them anything? ( not really relevant, I'm just nosey) Also, do you know what work the...

One Woolwich ferry! There's only one Woolwich ferry! One Woolwich ferrrry! There's only one Woolwich ferrrrry!

oops, diode not tranny. :facepalm:

I think it should be 45 degrees, only thing I can find on the web is this article http://www.lovekin.net/honeywell-motorised-valve-faults.html which also mentions 70 degrees for a 2 port valve. 63V may well be correct, as an ac voltage is applied to keep the valve in the heating-only position...
