    Socket & See Circuit Finder

    I have the same problem with the megger leads and my socket adaptor, if i turn them round and put the shrouded end into the tester its works, might work for the light mates as well I've never tried

    Oven and hob connection

    Cooker unit to 6mm to dual appliance outlet, connect both appliances direct. No need for the FCU

    Masthead amplifier stopped working

    I would check the socket that the power supply unit is plugged into is working. Try plug something else in see if it works. Could just be a coincidence that the psu has packed up while your electrician was round.

    Hive dual zone

    As above. Just remember to link L to terminal 1 on the single channel reciever also.

    shared neutral in lighting circuits

    That's a shared neutral. If theres an up stairs and down stairs lighting circuit. Commonly how it used to be done. And can be dangerous if you dont know it's there.

    Volt stick gives "false" reading

    Did you have neutrals separated at the time.

    Wireless room thermostat query

    Take a permanent live and neutral to the receiver. Link the second L in the reciever to terminal A. Then terminal B to Lr in boiler. Remove the link in the boiler Or do what buzz said didnt see his comment before posting

    Tips on getting cable through kopex

    Hoover taped on to one end. And bit of string the other and suck it through the kopex. Not sure if it would work over that distance though.

    The terror starts now....

    Most brands do compact rcbos now, with no functional earth. Bg is ok for a budget, but I would rather use hager or wylex. They look a bit more professional imo

    The terror starts now....

    What's wrong with wylex? I think they make good fuse boards.

    how often do you

    I usually do 2 sets a year. They get used all day every day. And when one breaks I replace the lot. Due a new set now. Probably go for wera this time round

    Cool White or Warm White LEDs?

    Warm white all day long in my opinion, cool white feels like your at the dentist. And for that size kitchen , without seeing it I would guess 10 would be plenty.

    Electrical Test Certificate

    Why dont you use the job as an example to to niceic or napit, and use it to get your self registered. Then you dont get the same problem in the future.
