    Hi, I was hoping somebody could point me in the right direction to learning a bit more about installing Coax and Sky cables and the arrangement from the sky dish, antenna, booster and TV points. I have installed this plenty of times but have always been told what cable goes where and then a TV...

    Ok thanks a lot for the quick reply. I will still need to upgrade the upfront RCD to a 100A because I have a 32A cooker ciruit and a 50A shower circuit totalling 82A?

    10kw Rangemaster Cooker Installation

    Ok so I've just looked into diversity which I should have known! So my total load is 10.56kw. 10560kw / 230 = 45.9A 45.9A - 10 = 35.9A 30 x 35.9 / 100 = 10.7A + first 10A = 20.7A Can somebody confirm this is the correct calculations now? Thanks

    10kw Rangemaster Cooker Installation

    Cheers murdoch, what is theoretical load then? If everything was turned up full to the max I am guessing? On the specs it does actually say 32A connection, but asks for 45A connection point. I thought it would be a safe bet to run a 10mm rather than 6mm just so I am covered. It is still safe...

    Swap Gas Hob for Ceramic Hob

    Hi, cheers for the replies and sorry if I'm changing the subject but would it be against regs to wire a 6mm out of the 45A switch to the hob and plug the cooker into the socket outlet on the 45A switch? Rather than 6mm to 2 connection points? Thanks

    Computer Monitor Cuts Out When Switching Lamp

    Hi thanks everyone for the replies. I have bought a new monitor today and so far is working better as it does not cut out, but every now and then there are still slight glitches. I think I will order a surge protected extension lead and hopefully that will fix it. Thanks again.

    2 17A Heat Mats Through Contactor

    Hi, I need to install 2 separate underfloor heat mats both rated at 17A on individual 20A breakers. The heatmat controls are rated at 16A so I think it would have to go through a contactor right? I can install an enclosure in a cupboard for the contactors but would I have to use 2 x 1 pole...
