Daft as it sounds I'm pricing a domestic job where they want conduit in certain places.
They must have seen the same magazine

Must admit, I prefer conduit in conservatory installs over t&e in YT2 where chasing cables in is not practical.

Just looks better/neater - maybe I'm a trendsetter. (Lol)

I'd use a good thread lock compound to any threads you don't want to move!! lol!!

Think i'd be mounting it on a wood/metal plinth or whatever with a felt base, ...if you're not keen on the thing as it stands, scratching surfaces. Id use the plain cast box lids for the outrigger boxes, instead the spouted box lids shown...

Who's selling these things at a very cheeky (to say the least) £294???

Craft fair, probably sell none. Interior designer for £100 each may be more interesting........dipsticks.

Looks like it's wired in pyro.... but.... I bet it's not! :wink5:

Where's the pyro? Looks like black flex in a brass stuffing gland to me, pyro glands don't look like that normally.
