Why not just replace the tails? I always change them anyway. Nine out of ten times they are to small.

Why would it? Just took a 1.0mm twin and earth to the upstairs landing light from downstairs and disconnected the supply to the upstairs light.

Sorry i should of been clearer. I totally agree with you and have wired this way for years but i was picked up on it by an old timer that deemed it necessary for me to wire the upstairs landing light off the downstairs circuit so as not to have 2 circuits in the downstairs light switch. He also...

It really is just a question as to whether it is ok to have 2 circuits in one switch.

Sorry if i have confused. The 2 gang switch switches the downstairs light which is fed from downstairs circuit and also has just a three core and earth which switches the upstairs light fed from the upstairs circuit.

2 gang lightswitch at bottom of stairs on a new rewired property has three core from upstairs in it, plus switch wire from downstairs light. My opinion is that it is fine as you need to be competent to even take the switch off. Another mate of mine is saying it has 2 supplies and contravenes...

Any nice hotel room would need a decent shower. Even the Mira advance which imo is the best you can buy is pathetic in comparison to a power shower fed from a tank. Plumber seems to not have a clue from the sounds of it.

See this all the time round my way. Usually change it to TT and run a 10mm to the sheath to bond it.

Is there really a need to asterix out swear words? I mean it's not like we're children!

He's taking the ****. I'd tell him such and demand my money. Let him get away with this and he'll think he can get away with anything.

Hi, Neil here. Been an electrician now for nearly 10 years. Time served apprentice with NVQ level 2 and 3. Also got 2391. Mostly do domestic work now but used to do commercial/industrial. It's a lot more hassle doing domestic though!

Pay cheap, pay twice my mum says!

Surprised the DNO came out at all. Usually they just say to put on TT. Which is probably what i would do now as i can't wait all day or week to see them
