I need to replace an existing door entry system. Only one handset and one call button required. The current one is a flush panel which mounts into a recessed back box - i'd like to find something that will fit into this back box. The original panel is about 85mm wide and 188mm high, There are...

Put it down to experience. Learn from it. Focus on the fact the you are "very happy with the work".

Thanks gents!

I'm trying to contact Megger Mark via PM but I'm getting the following error:   The following errors were foundThe member megger mark cannot receive any new messages This personal message has not been sent Is this likely because his inbox is full? Is there anyone else I can contact at...

As you can see from original post always intended to also have 3 pole iso adjacent to fan. Thanks - I will go with this method.

Agreed and I did tell them this - but they want what they want - dont they always! Yep agreed! I guess the fact that most of you guys are encouraging me to approach this in a different way means I cant rely on the fan to work the way I want it to! Many thanks for all the input.

Then I'll need to either have a single plate for the light switch and another for the fan, or a dual or a grid. Outside of bathroom all nicely decorated thought one single plate would be less disruptive and has to be done for light switch anyway.

I wanted 3 pole by fan so anyone working on fan in loft can safely isolate the fan without it possibly being switched back on outside bathroom.

I'm installing an inline timer fan connected to bathroom lighting so will be using 3 pole isolator in loft next to fan for isolation. Client wants to be able to turn fan off at night. Obviously the permanent Line (connected to fan L1) is usually powering the fan during overrun. Currently all...

If you win the auction - make sure you count all your other wheels before leaving Redditch!

Also you could do worse than reading Chris Kircher's book "Practical Guide to Inspection, Testing and Certification of Electrical Installations"...

I'm trying to locate one off the above breakers. I have found some (GET & ALTO versions) - second hand on the net - but not for a reasonable price and I want new. Any help or suggestions for readily available, compatible alternatives would be much appreciated. The following (finished)...

Lots of good information and templates here: http://www.moneysavingexpert.com/reclaim/ppi-loan-insurance

Conincidentally I've just been asked to do the very same thing. Can anybody point me in the direction of any good reference material which would help me gain a better understanding of the ventilation principles involved here please?

Well perhaps I'm wrong but that's not how I read it - that's a bit like saying dont supply the alarm via a standard switch (fairly obvious!) I thought they were talking about 'noise' etc and this is from their website: New Installation – What do I need to check? Choose the right alarms for...

Also worth bearing in mind that Aico at least, specify that their alarms should not be fitted to circuits which have dimmers connected. Now there might not be dimmers present at the time you install the alarm, but somebody might add them after and undermine the smoke alarms.

From the Aico website: "Q: Do I need a mains feed to each RadioLINK base? Yes, each base needs a permanent mains feed. This can be taken from the lighting circuit nearest to that base – as long as it's a permanent feed"

My biggest concern relates to socket rings/ radials. Ive seen a lot where the cable is surrounded by insulation yet MCBs used are still 32A/20A (i.e. no derating applied)

When clipping cable direct to studwork where insulation is present, how do you avoid the part of the cable that enters the dry lining box being completely surrounded by insulation whilst keeping to safe zones? Dry lining boxes have to be positioned at least slightly away from studs so that the...

Great - thanks Doc
