I need to install a mirror demsiter pad to a mirror which has a metallic frame. These pads are class 2 According to the installation instructions: "All metal parts surrounding the mirror, e.g. the frame, must be earthed to comply with the IEE Wiring regulations – Seventeenth edition...

Quite a few people in your position are offering their services free to anyone that can give them the experience they are after. Based on what you've said I guess that would have to be on your days off! It might seem a little unpalatable to work for free but this is probably what you'll be...

If you kept a flag in the database to indicate email or snailmail for each recipients preference, you could then in MS access code do something like (pseudo code): if flag = email then     create email object     send email object else    print report end if have a look at...

Thank you gentlemen!

Yes it does many thanks for that. So am I correct in thinking that this device is suitable to provide Additional Protection?

I need to make some alterations to circuits within a board that has an MEM 404ELHNC elcb main switch (80A/30mA). These alterations will need RCD protection. If this device tests out ok - ie 1 x < 200ms, 5 X < 40ms is this acceptable or will I need to fit a new RCD? Does anyone know the...

It is singles - each within its own compartment in the ribbed white outer which is bendy and not britlle and appears to be pvc or rubber. I've seen this with a black outer and orange too.

Sorry not sure the picture is good enough. Anyway if you can see, would you classify this wiring type as "Thermoplastic insulated/sheathed cables" (NICEIC code A formally "PVC/PVC cable") or "Thermoplastic cables in non-metallic conduit" (NICEIC code C formally "PVC cables in non-metallic...

Mission accomplished! Due in no small part to the assistance offered here. Thanks for all the help and advice provided - it made a real difference. Learnt a lot about how to and how not to do this, in the process. Took a lot longer than I thought and made a few mistakes but next time I'll be...

Both standalone PIRs. Like you in one instance I replaced the original for the second to fail in the same manner - third one will have to be better!

Good post Dave and I agree - trouble is getting hold of the IP65 stuff....

Hi. Recently I've been called out to two different sites where IP44 PIRs have failed due to water ingress - one which I had fitted. These are both quite exposed to the elements and of late, as you know, we've had more than our fair share of rain. I'm looking for something which is more...

Do you have access to test equipment to test the resistance between each pair of connections and the effect that adjusting the dimmer has on these readings?

Thanks Andy, but I'm sorry I don't understand. Do you mean cut the cable allowing enough 2.5s to reach the first DSO and enough 1.5s to reach the light? If so how do I then pull the next set of 2.5s from the first DSO along to the second DSO?

Thanks for all the help so far - really useful. Just to clarify it is 6491x. Given the attached configuration with basically a high level run around the room, dropping to acessories as necessary how would you pull cable down to and then back up from the DSOs? (2.5mms need to drop to DSO whilst...

Hi. I need to pull some cable through 20mm PVC conduit. The configuration is quite convoluted but I'm hoping I've put in sufficient boxes (every 2m or so) and kept bends to a minimum. The max number of cables thru any section is 6 x 1.5mm plus 3 x 2.5mm. According to my CableMate calculations...

I need some lighting for a garage I'm wiring in 20mm PVC conduit. Looking for something fairly Robust and cheapish. Would help to have 20mm knockouts available. I have trawled the net/catalogs etc but was wondering does anybody have any recommendations/favourites they've used previously. Thanks.

Got home tonight to find shiney new set of drivers waiting for me! I'd forgotten all about this thread / comp - took me a good while to fathom out where they'd come from... Many thanks CK

MIS 3002 Issue 2.1 4.2 Design and installation Furthermore an inverter supplied from a PV array must be connected via a dedicated circuit, to a spare fuseway in the main distribution unit, or to a fuseway in an additional dedicated distribution board.

Yeah sorry I know not enough info, but I don't have the info myself yet. I just wanted to know in principal really. Thanks.---------- Post Auto-Merged at 07:41 ---------- Previous post was made at 07:28 ---------- Is there something fundamentaly wrong with this method.?? (As above I know I...
