On a bad day
I think he was a police man ?Pretty sure he aint a mechanic but did restore cars as a business, no keen on him tbh I likes Guy Martin.
But don't touch your toesI'll leave it to your imagination as to what a Freelander or two in a garden indicates ----
how do thay do wiring over there we are like in Germany each outlet is separate with it's own RCB not as UK ring mains ?Afternoon folks.
Been over at friends house today doing wiring, yep am allowed to do that here. I ran wires a while ago.
So today managed to get the Fusebox in and all wired up except the feed to the outside building. Switch on the wall for the Immersion heater and 1 socket.
So its lights tomorrow and a second socket, then see if I got it right and connect to the main fusebox.
It has been a chilly day here and think the temps have sure taken a turn. But got the flames going in the big box in the corner so we are cosy. Hope everybody else is.
We are going Veggie tonight, Cauliflower cheese with beans, Love it.

Looks really nice. Is this the one you talked about before?
It’s a ring but each socket is a spur. But they normally run it horizontally around the room just below the ceiling with junction boxes , not in our house.how do thay do wiring over there we are like in Germany each outlet is separate with it's own RCB not as UK ring mains ?

Our eldest grand daughter was a student doing a degree to become a mental health nurse. She was doing a work placement in Hull jail. Where she got stabbed. She jacked it in as she felt she didn't get any support over it. Too many emergency service peeps get ill treated. Sucks.Really I didnt know that, not a job I fancy tbh my uncle was a copper & got stabbed with a syringe.
One of the many things that happened to him. Stuff that job.
Funny how electrics are so different in different countries. Frog electrics isn't too bad. They don't do rings either.It’s a ring but each socket is a spur. But they normally run it horizontally around the room just below the ceiling with junction boxes , not in our house.
But (the bit I hate) neutral and earth are the same, some don’t even run earths to outlets.
There just isn’t room in the socket boxes for a full ring, well there is (I did it to start with) but it’s so tight and hard I gave up.
Today was basically 2 outlets on single wires to 1 fuse. Immersion to its own, lights on a ring as we have UK light roses we brought over (yep they don’t have them here)

I don't know about anyone else but I am always appalled that in all American films the only lighting they seem to have in any room is standard lamps, table lamps and really poor lighting. It's like living in a cave.Funny how electrics are so different in different countries. Frog electrics isn't too bad. They don't do rings either.
I agree totally about typical 3 pin plugs with switches, French ones don't have switches, and of course the fuses in the plugs which French ones don't have either. I have a couple in our place, one in the understairs cupboard as the alarm is Brit and needed a Brit 2 pin plug and what I have modified the system to in the cabling for the pool equipment, pump etc. I have shown Brit plugs and sockets to French peeps. They all approve and agree they are much safer.I don't know about anyone else but I am always appalled that in all American films the only lighting they seem to have in any room is standard lamps, table lamps and really poor lighting.

The British ring-system for lighting and for mains power is so infinitely better IMHO.
Just look at the standard UK 3-pin mains plug and socket........it is a masterpiece of safety engineering.
Even if I lived abroad in a foreign place I would apply the English system in my private dwelling because...well, it's just so much better.
