    Has wire marking changed - or what do you use.

    When I was an apprentice sparky back in the 1970's and we were rewiring houses or first fixing new houses/flats, I was taught a marking method for T&E that seemed to be common but undocumented throughout the industry. I'm talking specifically about lighting circuits and the loop-in system. At...

    Yellow 240v extension reel??

    Hi all, Today I was given a yellow 240v extension reel to use. Now if I'm not mistaken yellow flex indicates 110v. So how does this comply? If I was to use this on a construction site everybody would assume it is 110v whereas in reality it's not it's 240v! Thoughts please :)

    Best price for new yellow regs book.

    Hi all. Just wondered what the best price is that people have paid for the new regs book and where from. Cheers. Also, strangely, the return button on my computer seems to have no effect in the post typing box (hence all on one paragraph).

    nail plugs or very thin yellow plugs?

    Has anyone got a source for "pin plugs"? I find "Uni-fix nailing plugs" - but at nearly £8 per 100 on Ebay! That's barmy when cheapo yellow plugs (just a teeny bit too big for clip nails) are 39p in Screwfix. I used to have a box of yellow ones which worked a treat, but no idea of the brand...
