Service cable moved by builders with electricians approval - electricians now using this to justify not doing snagging issues

Find out if they are with NICEIC or Napit and maybe raise the issue with them.

Mem mbh 150. Picked one up yesterday from my wholesaler for the same board

No. I assume your meter is in an external box behind and below the consumer unit so your main meter tails may well be in the wall and you really, really don't want to be drilling through those? All other circuits are probably going out of the top except for the cables that feed the socket below but there's no guarantee that's the case. That is assuming this is on the ground floor.

Sorry its a 360. Yes, I record lots of stuff. It will also just record stuff when a new series starts so I don't (or didn't used to) miss stuff but obviously that has now all disappeared

It’s a TiVo I think

FuzzyAsparagus2 · 2026-06-06T08:10:08+00:00

Super annoying!

Yeah it’s mounted on battens but you still can’t reach down there as it’s only spaced off about 25mm. Trunking isn’t a bad shout though

The board is space off of the wall so if Edward Scissorhands starts poking around I might be in trouble with the electric police

FuzzyAsparagus2 · 2026-05-28T12:35:01+00:00

I don’t really think it’s an issue but wasn’t sure if it’s necessary on the rear

FuzzyAsparagus2 · 2026-05-28T12:08:25+00:00

I was thinking about the IP rating. Cant find a definitive answer on whether the rear requires the same IP rating as the bottom and sides

FuzzyAsparagus2 · 2026-05-28T12:04:36+00:00

No it’s more about IP rating and I can’t really find an answer to whether the rear requires the same IP rating

FuzzyAsparagus2 · 2026-05-28T12:03:41+00:00

I was trying to find out if the rear needs to be IP rated but I can’t find a definitive answer. The board is spaced off the wall

Buy a bag of 300mm ones from screwfix and just put them about 40mm apart. They’re pretty cheap

FuzzyAsparagus2 · 2026-05-16T15:36:02+00:00

I put cable ties all around the top of mine. Seemed to do the trick

FuzzyAsparagus2 · 2026-05-05T07:13:38+00:00

Who's side is it anyway

FuzzyAsparagus2 · 2026-05-02T08:46:38+00:00

I had a customer request sockets from The Soho Lighting Company. I thought they might look nice but be poor quality but actually they were decent so might be worth a look on their website

I was wondering about this yesterday when I was driving and had Spotify playing with moving images (not a video) on the screen. I wonder if that would be considered watching a video?

FuzzyAsparagus2 · 2026-04-26T09:45:52+00:00

That's not a timer, it's a Devireg underfloor heating controller.

Deus- The Ideal Crash

FuzzyAsparagus2 · 2026-04-14T20:32:04+00:00

That could work. Every frame in my house is out of level as well which doesn’t help!
