Hi guys
Just wanted some advice.
We wanted to get some lighting, sockets and a infrared heater to our garden gazebo. We have an outside socket currently right next to the gazebo. Could you guys give me some advise on a bit of a wiring diagram on the following, we wanted to have 2 double...
The electrical cord on my Holmes Ceramic Heater (HCH-4051) frayed at the entry point to the heater and while removing the frayed cord, I forgot to pair (mark) the wires on both sides of the enclosure before snipping the cord.
Upon inspection, I determined one wire from the electrical cord went...
Hi Guys
Just after some advice if possible. I have wired an extension and the plumber has fitted a manifold for the new UFH which he has asked me to sort out. There's one motorized valve so i have wired it as shown in the picture:
The customer has now asked if I can fit a Hive stat to the...

Hi,
Quick question and hopefully not too silly. In the wiring for a heating system, is the convention to use Brown sleeve at on all cables that are either Live or Switched Live, where the insulation itself is not brown? Or only those where the existing colour might be misleading, like a Blue...
Hi there
I have an electrical water heater. It has two switches one main immersion one boost. The main one has gone hot and won't work :( can I just use the boost? Also it has a 13a plug in the main is that enough? Is that why its seized up? It went very hot beforehand:( ☹
I'm getting started on rehabbing my house and I want to install an electric underfloor heating system that I can eventually control through an open source home automation system. As I understand it, most thermostats are not compatible with electric underfloor heating because for electric...
Hi.
I'm buying a property currently that I intend to fully rewire and at least partially upgrade the central heating. I've been thinking for a while I'd like to go the whole hog and install fully independent zone heating for each room. I don't want any batteries anywhere in thermostats or trvs...
Hi there,
In my apartment I have a Horstmann Economy 7 2 hour water heater system, in recent weeks it has stopped working overnight, when I wake up in the morning there is no hot water. I've checked / reset the clock to make sure its set correctly & it does seem to be turning / moving ahead as...
Would it be acceptable to use Wago 224 connectors to join a cable that powers an underfloor heating mat that has been damaged?
The mat is powered via a thermostat that is connected to a fused connection unit fitted with a 13 amp fuse.
The wire feeding the mat is 1.0mm2.
I see Wago call the...
Hi all my ceiling heating stopped working recently and I want it back on for the winter. I have checked the feed to the contactor which was live but was the voltage was not going through the contactor. I replaced the contactor with a similar 4 pole model but have the same issue. I have wired it...
Hi
I've just started renting a new flat with my partner and we're having some energy problems.
The boiler that we have is as I understand it, a pretty inefficient one - a Heatrae Sadia Electromax. The landlord and their engineers have been really pretty useless with helping with any of our...
I am a home owner that has a lot of previous success with some pretty heavy DIY projects including running a 100 amp box in the garage and adding 7 outlets on 3 breakers, etc.
That said I just purchased a Dimplex euh12b84ct and have not been able to get it running. Its 12.5 KW 600 Volt and I'm...
Hello. I was called to a house yesterday where the electric underfloor heating doesn't function. The supply is good but the customer did say that the temperature probe was replaced a few years ago, and a new thermostat panel fitted , see attached photos. What are the 2 clear sheathed wires for...
Hi all, looking for some advice. I very quickly looked at a job in an apartment block. It has a normal dual rcd board in and a, what i assume is an off peak board. The off peak is an old rewireable fuse type. It would appear that at some point there has been storage heaters in but now there is...

I live in a first floor flat and would like to install underfloor heating in the bathroom and kitchen. The mains box is in the communal area on the ground floor. Would an electrician have to connect the underfloor heating to the mains box and would that require a lot of work?
Thanks in...
I have been asked by the plumber to be present when he installs the water underfloor heating. This was not part of my quote as it is not something I do. Bit unsure of exactly what he will want as it is the builder I am talking to and have not yet spoken to the plumber.
I was hoping for a bit of...
