  • Don’t forget we have a giveaway going on at the moment, so go and enter before we hit 5k subs and the giveaway is announced.
    Today, we pretty much removed everything from this bathroom, rewired everything to incorporate the new fan, lights, shaver socket etc
    Let us know in the comments what we could have done better ?

    Hi, Just had a look at the building regs as far as chasing walls is concerned. My maths show that you should be ok.
    As you say it isn't a supporting wall and as such is not under any load. Another great vid. Ta.

    Nice one lads. I'd have set the lights out exactly the same. 'Looks like it grew there', 'never knew we'd been' - same patter all over the country amongst sparks it would seem. We use them up in the north east too. U ever heard the term challawalla? That's another one I used to hear a lot. 'Thats challawalla, that!' (it's a good job).

    • @Cablesmith

      Me neither mate. I used to work with a load of ex shipyard sparks and they used to say it. Then I worked with a joiner who used to drop it in from time to time too. Must be a local thing.

    I hope that fan is 2.25 metres above that bath and suitably ipx rated Shaun 😉😆😆😆 when I used to fit down lights I used to get an old screwdriver and poke it up before I drilled so I could check for joists as it's easier to put filler over a screwdriver hole than patching in a mistake. Nice job as always on that bathroom 👍

    • @Cablesmith
      @Cablesmith  2 роки тому +1

      Yea I also use that screwdriver trick too, but if I can find the joists and space them to miss, like this one I would rather do that first 😀

    Also would have done exactly the same with the downlights.
    It’s not often the joists allow for them to land properly.
    Would always do what looks best and ensure the shower one is centre and deliberately off compared to the others as if they are slightly off it looks like you messed up measuring, this way it doesn’t.
    Agree with E6 use them as standard then when E8’s get supplied you’re like urgh 🤣

      @@Cablesmith Yeah mate fit them as standard! Got a couple to fit tomorrow as it goes! The ONLY Gripe with them is I wish the click that connects to them was flexible like other lights just because especially retro fitting them if there is a joist or a noggin close or a waste pipe etc it can be a tight squeeze to get them in and it can unclick bar that no issues mate.
      I think I must have fitted thousands of these literally over the years and only ever had 6 go wrong…4 from the same batch, I get the whole integral argument but when you find a brand that lasts & will be around for ages I don’t see the issue.
      Have you seen the new A7 I think they are? Like these but smaller profile can fit in a 65mm cut out think it’s 65-73 fire rated and all the jazz you need white bezel as standard look the same but are slim 50mm profile I think 👌🏻so handy

    Another good one Sean,was that a quick glimpse of a Costa carryout I spied,nice looking down lights,so many to choose from nowadays do you have a favourite that you prefer to fit or do the customers usually buy them and you just fit what they supply

    • @Cablesmith
      @Cablesmith  2 роки тому +2

      Yep it was costa 👌🏼 and yea, I prefer to use Enlite E6 Pro’s myself and this is what I usually quote for if I’m supplying them. Unless they want GU10 versions then it’s JCC Fireguards.
      But I’ll fit any of the customer wants to pick their own, as long as they’re suitably fire and IP rated for the room.

    Quick one for the expert , on my fuse board the downstairs sockets are marked , living room, kitchen, both beside eachother , ok if I trip the kitchen RCD everything stays live in the kitchen, if I trip the living room RCD it stays live in living room, if I trip both RCDs both rooms are dead ,now if I turn on the kitchen RCD everything is live including the living room and vise versa if I turn on the living room without turning on the kitchen RCD everything is live in both rooms, the only conclusion I can think of is the original electrician crossed the wires for both circuits , if any of that made any sense
