    In Australia, we do not use ring circuits, everything is a radial and they are all 16/20Amp circuits, even for kitchens, and we don't have issues.
    My kitchen has a single 16Amp and I've never had issues with it tripping out. I don't really understand the British obsession with 32Amp ring circuits. They just seem to be more trouble than they are worth with very little benefit.

    As far as toilet/bathroom pull switches are concerned - I evades my why there is not a low very low voltage standard size switch that could energise a device up in the ceiling that carrier the 230 or LV voltage to the lights. Are you aware of any such device.
    Did you re-measure 3mts from the new bath as it now seems to project further into the room that the shower used to ?
    Did I see Nige "get the horn" when he was messing with the pendant light.

    Is it listed which is why you couldnt remove the skirting boards or did you just not have permission from the owner?

    • @dsesuk
      @dsesuk  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      I'm not sure if the skirtings are part of the listing, but there were areas that simply weren't being decoratively refurbished and where the old wiring had to remain. We tested it all out of course, but some of it was off-limits to us. Some areas will be open to electrical refurbishment when the kitchen/utility get knocked down and extended which, hopefully, will be in the next couple of years.

    Thinking of other trades? Why would you put a switch to isolate the fridge on show. More hassle for the tiler/ splashback, will never be used and looks shit. Why would you not just put the single socket in the unit next to the fridge similar to how you have done the dishwasher. Its a point of isolation, accessible and one less joint. If that fuse in the fridge plug ever goes your into a world of pain getting an integrated fridge out just to change a fuse. Same goes for the oven hob isolator. No one ever uses them so put it out of the way.

    Was it a 13 amp plug in to an existing socket then into a fuse spur then out the fuse spur on the in side to out side socket so 13 amp and the load side of fuse spur 3 amp to the light transformer. And put the transformer in the back of the outside double socket.

      Plugtop with 13A fuse and a short flex clipped to the skirting to a pattress mounted FCU behind the curtain. LNE to the input of the FCU daisy chains to the socket outside to provide 13A. Switched line from the 3A output of the FCU goes out to the input of the LED driver. The driver's neutral is the same as that of the socket (i.e. not switched by the FCU).

    What a lovely client you’ve got , makes life so much easier. You did very well to get your outlets in the right position, without a scale drawing you can so easily drop a clanger with out one . I notice that everyone seems to be using radials these days , which I totally agree with . But it was always considered a no no to use anything grater than a 16amp MCB / RCBO on a 2.5 mm radial . The same went for 32 amp on 4mm radials , sounds ridiculous but many electrical engineers just would not sanction it . We even have one engineer who wanted all the sockets in a computer room to be wired in a 6mm ring circuit , I remember he took some convincing that trying to terminate two 6mm into socket was not necessarily a good idea 😂 . People still ask me do I miss the job , no but I miss laughs . And judging by you two they’d be plenty of them Best wishes and kind regards to you both as always. 😀👍👍👍
