    RCD keeps tripping. Perhaps i've wired it incorrectly?

    Good afternoon! In my house, I have a three-phase power system and this RCD that's rated for 40 A max and 30 mA leakage current. It keeps constantly tripping on loads larger than a phone charger (ie an electric kettle or toaster). This house is to EU standards (I live in Latvia). I'm wondering...

    TV Lift Reverse Polarity Motor and Limit Switches perhaps?

    Hi. I want to control a TV Lift from a home automation system. Its hasn't got any standard way of doing this and the person setting the home automation needs to know just a few things to get it working. Ive had an electrician look at the control box and motor, he's figured out that the...

    Pete's threads.... ooops, I mean this reminds me of Pete.... or perhaps Tel!

    Pete can't post all the clips, here's one I came across! I like the chap. A cross between Pete and Tel perhaps :D I think you need to have had a few beers as it goes on for a bit.

    Thought I would say a Happy new year to everyone!

    Happy New year everyone. I do hope you have all had a good Christmas. I personally am happy that all the mayhem has died down and things are getting back to normal! I must say I have not spent as much time on the site since it has changed. I can't put my finger on why not. It just doesn't seem...

    Trouble finishing training

    Hi everyone, Hoping for some advice here. Situation is that I decided to retrain at 27 and due to mortgage and bills I could not afford to take 3+ years as an apprentice on very low wages. I took the decision to take a number of courses at Able Skills in Dartford and use my savings to pay...

    Is this work notifiable?

    Morning.... I usually have a very clear idea over what is notifiable and what is not, but I'm not sure with this one! If a consumer unit is fed from the main consumer unit, is the change of just the 2nd CU notifiable? I realise the 'new' part P states 'change of consumer unit' as notifiable...

    A business opportunity perhaps...

    BBC News - Electric car charging points in garages and driveways get 75% subsidy Well when they start becoming more widespread that is. Wonder how much of that £1000-£1500 is the actual cost of the hardware required??

    Gallery, perhaps with sub galleries?

    I'm really interested in lighting and the sort of work that can be done especially outdoors. When I was a Super Mod on an automotive Forum we had a Gallery with Sub Galleries where members posted various photos of their vehicles. I was wondering if anyone else would use this if it was...

    Perhaps someone may be able to help, PLEASE!

    Hi guys. Bit of an odd one, but one of you might have an answer. I've got a customer who has an old Belling 900G Farmhouse range cooker and the main oven thermostat has failed. The part number is 46THC8/J5, however it's no longer available and I can't find one anywhere. Does anyone know if...

    Perhaps another heds up to customers

    When your home insurance won It seems that advice given by the majority of us to customers concerning properly maintained electrical installations, inc fire alarms and DIY work that is not correct, is highlighted again by Insurance Companies not paying out.
