i've had a word with the joiner and he says im ok to knock the noggins out for these two spot lights. and he'll set them in again. These spot lights have a type F on them. The building will be inspected by the council on completion. I'd rather be 100% sure, than have plenty of doubt. The...

these joists do not hold up the floor above and he has put noggins inbetween the joists. ..so is it okay to knock the noggins out of the way? Is it ok to cut these out at all to get the 50mm away from the spot lights. Yes they are fire rated. sorry about the confusion.

we are fitting 50W spots fire proof, we will be hitting about less then a quarter of the joist part.

Myself and a mate have some spot lights to install in a rough 5m^2 room. 25 spots in total, 5 rows of 5. The joists which hold the plasterboard in place for the ceiling, which will soon be skimmed, now the joiner has gone across the room with long joists and then offset each joist the other...

no lagging going on the pipes, i've just shifted them to the left and tyewraped them to the joist.

cheers for the help.

ta brian, now if the gas pipe has lagging on, does it matter if the cables are close to the pipe still or do i need to move them 25mm away..???

I settled for the Maikta 18V cordless combi drill, with 2 battery's.

I'm currently doing a complete rewire on a chippy and flat, now they have run a gas pipe in across the length of the building for the boiler, this follows cables that i've already ran along the ceiling. Am i correct in saying the wires are not allowed to be ran next to it (reg's, a certain...

i like the look of ... www.angliatoolcentre.co.uk/ma...s-pid8444.html good battery charge up time btw, any tips on how to chase walls as i've never done it before.

I'll be drilling into a lot of brick and plasterboard and chasing walls, etc. An SDS drill is what im looking at and cordless as i'll be up ladders a lot and makes my job easier

Time for myself to invest in a drill, as i have work until Xmas time and it should pay for itself eventually. Im looking at Dewalt, as they seem the best brand for my price range of

the hole cutting through the joist for a spot light is definately a potenial hazard for residents as the joists are an intergral part of the structure. which will weaken that area and may become a stress point for the upstairs floor to collapse if a load is applied. i think you can get the beam...

I dont think the cables will need to go outside for the lighting cct, so i'll just be using TandE. ta fellas for the feedback. work starts tomorrow.!

the garage is joined onto the house and for the circuit i willl run it off a new MCB. Now, will the new lighting cct to be installed for the garage be ok to terminate into the existing lighting MCB 6A which controls the lighting in the house. or will reg's prevent that, due to being outside or...

I will be stripping out the old circuit as they are redundant and beyond repair he'll be using power tools, radio, etc. I'll be putting a new cct in.

I've been asked by my uncle to do a few sockets and lighting in the garage. Would a 16A radial do the trick for the 3 sockets and to feed the lighting off the existing 6A MCB. The lighting will probably be 1 or 2 flourescents. Or will a ring be a better solution?
