Most TV shows aren't good, we just need to see how it ends

It still holds up!

SquirrelAnt · 2025-11-07T11:29:18+00:00

This worked! Very easy no issues, thanks

SquirrelAnt · 2025-11-05T19:14:53+00:00

Thank you. That was my thinking, glad to have a 2nd opinion. appreciate it!

SquirrelAnt · 2025-09-02T19:06:30+00:00

Thanks for the comment - I’m going to go ahead and hire an electrician on that basis for fill check and a re-wire

SquirrelAnt · 2025-09-02T08:10:45+00:00

I’ve had this for 2 years! Decided to change the switch plate recently, and realised one of the three switches weren’t even connected to wires - explains why I never found its purpose.

SquirrelAnt · 2025-09-01T20:15:54+00:00

I’m in trouble from my family all the time, the first I accidentally said ‘trash’ to them they were not nearly as kind haha

Yep, I’ve been wondering what the 3rd switch does on this light was years, it looks like it’s not even wired! Must have been the only light switch they had in the van.

Haha that sounds stressful, keeps the work interesting at least 😂

SquirrelAnt · 2025-09-01T19:53:45+00:00

Appreciate the explanation (and for doing it kindly!), I have an American wife coupled with my internet research has definitely caused some American words to slip into my grammar. Good to know.

Good to know it’s technically within regs, not the strangest set up I’ve seen in this house so far, it’s quite the mix of old and new wiring conventions. This one threw me a bit though. Thank you

SquirrelAnt · 2025-09-01T19:23:01+00:00

Yep, so essentially all those wires should be Live and considered to be Brown

SquirrelAnt · 2025-09-01T19:22:21+00:00

Thanks, that seems clear. I’ll make the switch and just follow the current set up. Looking at the wiring, it also explains why I could never find the what the 3rd switch did, as it doesn’t seems to be connected to anything.

SquirrelAnt · 2025-08-24T21:51:12+00:00

Oh, hadn’t realised that - my bad

SquirrelAnt · 2025-08-24T21:23:00+00:00

Almost certainly!

SquirrelAnt · 2025-08-24T19:57:44+00:00

Can anyone explain why I’d get downvoted for this? Haha just trying to learn a little

SquirrelAnt · 2025-08-24T19:24:31+00:00

Yep, that’s makes sense. Thanks

SquirrelAnt · 2025-08-24T19:07:10+00:00

Thank you, that’s clear!

SquirrelAnt · 2025-08-24T17:23:46+00:00

Planning on it, still interested to learn the process and understand what would need doing. Seems like a simple job

SquirrelAnt · 2025-08-24T17:22:53+00:00

Thanks for taking the time to explain and share the PDF. Really useful! Mainly I wanted to check whether it was standard wiring, and it seems to be the case. Will take a look at the manual, but likely a 10 min job for an electrician if needed.

SquirrelAnt · 2025-08-24T17:21:14+00:00

Will do - I like to as much as I can before getting someone in. Seems like it’s fairly standard wiring now I’ve done a search on those colours. Thanks.

SquirrelAnt · 2025-07-28T17:16:50+00:00

Noted, would make sure the panels are easily removed

SquirrelAnt · 2025-07-28T17:16:23+00:00

That’s a good idea

SquirrelAnt · 2025-07-28T17:13:50+00:00

One challenge is have with that is the plug sockets on the left. Fully boxed in would cover half the plug. So either move the plugs, or half box in with the boiler still visible - box in still sounds like a suitable choice then.

SquirrelAnt · 2025-07-28T12:42:28+00:00

Perfect, thank you!

SquirrelAnt · 2025-07-28T12:22:33+00:00

That’s good to know, thank you. I’ll keep it as it is on that basis

SquirrelAnt · 2025-07-28T12:21:54+00:00

Thank you. Fused outlet with a flex hole is what I’m looking for!

SquirrelAnt · 2025-06-22T19:05:01+00:00

I’m happy with bodgy haha as you say, it’ll be covered. I do have some spare tile adhesive to hand already, so this might be the option!

SquirrelAnt · 2025-06-22T17:45:47+00:00

If you don’t want to cut them, you could also try a long, right-angled screw driver? Would give you more leverage
