Trying to find an armoured cable behind plasterboard and studding.
It was used to supply power from the house but has been disconnected
Can someone suggest a probe or device to find it.
There are screws in the PB and copper pipes on the ground behind the PB and twin core for sockets, but I know...
IMIT TWIN THERMOSTAT (LONG PROBE) hi just wondering if anyone can explain the wiring diagram for this thermostat. The question has been asked before but I can get the information I need. I have asked an electrician but he’s unsure.
Hi,
I've come across an unexpected problem. I've started to use the newer slimline wago 221 connectors, and when I came to do my continuity tests I found my kewtech test probes are too short to reach all the way inside the test port on the connectors. My KT63 is getting on a bit and I believe...
Hi, I recently bought a metal halide fitting but I have no idea how to tell if its a pulse or probe start unit.
I have what I believe are both types of bulb and the fitting will start both, would that indicate its a pulse start?
With the bulb which I believe is a pulse start bulb (has just a...
I am replacing a thermostat on a wall oven and can only find used parts due to the age of the oven (1960's Frigidaire Flair). The used thermostat has a probe that goes into the oven and the casing or covering that covers the capillary tube has a break in it that exposes the capillary tubing. Can...
Hi i would like some kind of standalone cylinder stat that can send the tank tempreture to a display, ideally wirelessly.

OK, Stop laughing at the back!
SO, I'm house hunting and, ignoring the number of beautifully decorated houses with rubbish electrics - I also want to be aware of any damp issues. This led me to try using the trusty Megger with sharp probes to test for damp. This appears to work, or at-least is...
Arranging ufh in kitchen+adj utility. Lots of conflicting advice re probe position.
(What makes sense to me).
1. Fit in conduit for ease of replacement.
2. Fit 'close' to heating element (which is what it is sensing). Without touching.
3. Fit as close as sensible beneath the controller on...

Just had a call to give someone a quote for dry underfloor heating which I declined as I haven't done it before and I'm sure it's within my capability to do it but I wouldn't quote for something I have no experience of.
Just curious if other electricians do dry underfloor heating?
Hi,
I have purchased a Kewtech KT1780 Voltage Tester. But I can't get it to do a double pole test.
The instructions show the user inserting the probes into the wall outlet.
But I don't get any indication when I put the probes into the wall outlet.
Is it because the probes are too small?
I...

Hi all, I'm new to both this forum and PAT testing. I've been given a Megger PAT2 to use but it's missing its flash testing probe, so I can't use the tester for Class 2 insulation tests. I'm not hopeful of getting a spare from Megger themselves so can anyone advise on a replacement? I'm afraid I...

Hi chaps. I've come over from the Tilers Forum for some precious advice. In an hours time I hope to install Electric UNDERFLOOR heating in my own bathroom, and I need some quick advice. Its about the temp sensor. I suddenly saw that it "should" be installed in a conduit to allow its removal if...

Hey, i'm in the market for a new voltage indicator. i quite fancy the look and function of the fluke series but what's everyone using? i had a shot of another sparks a while ago where even if only the main probe was touching a live it would light up, much like a voltstick. I'm not sure what...
