The Bungalow - update
I fixed my firewall so you should all be able to see this:
http://www.dionic.net/Alveston/building-1/ So far, temporary power on surface run cables (ie builders and me can see them). 2 lights so far, will add more next weekend, do a final "Megger" on the whole lot and write out an electrical installation cert which will prove useful in dealings with EDF. Then I'll be able to kill off the old CU completely. At least we have RCDs now... Worked like a demon yesterday to drain down heating, chop off and cap off 4 radiators + bath and refill heating and check for leaks. Also move bolier over to a fused spur from temp socket circuit to make walls safe for Pete the Builder to put a diamond cutter though some of them for doorway alterations. Got home at 1am, ate and bed at 2:30 (good film on telly). Now I am dead, so please excuse bad typing. Pete and Darren of Broadbeech Builders,Tunbridge Wells, have been very busy digging new drains. As there were so many drain alterations, I asked them to run a completely new set with 3 pits, and they managed to maintain a connection to the old drains so the loo still works (hurrah). I'm glad I subbed this bit out - along with the building of new walls. Until I go full time on this project in Feb 2009, it's nice to see some leaps in progress that I couldn't manage myself at such speed. There are a couple of questions spinning off from this, but I'll ask those later whern I'm awake. Cheers Tim |
