    When have worked out the positions of the lights i drop a plum line down and if its a wooden floor i put a screw into the floor directly below the light position. On second fix you just plum stright up to find your cable.

    As well as drawings/measurements, always take a photo of cable positioning, then you know if there's a reason for odd distancing

      They do, plus not sure that's in the best location and could be more than 3m, from what I am assuming is a bedroom. If you get a building inspector who knows their stuff it could get pulled, although saying that, it will probably be ok 😂😂

    Hi Nick, I have the imex laser, although I've recently changed it to a heuper model. The downside of the imex is the integrated battery, twice I have broken the charging socket by tripping on the charging lead. The heuper has a removable camara battery, so much better

    Honestly get yourself a dot laser and mark the floors on sites where pendants and down lights are going, sockets too. I learnt to do it while working in the states because the last thing to go down is the finished floor (unless the wood is being sanded and has sheets/protection covering it. Honestly it makes life so much easiest, you could use a plum line too which is cheaper but takes longer.
    Looking forward to the bag, regardless I'll buy it cause I'm a tool and bag hoarder.

    I've been using a digital spirit level for a number of years, a tool I would recommend if you do a lot of conduit or trunking and you have to run several lengths of conduit or trunking next to each other at angles , as you know it's not always possible to run trunking or conduit vertical or horizontal all the time

    Another great video but the smoke is in the wrong place should be 300mm away from the light and wall and really shouldn’t where it is it should be out on the landing the landing will fill with smoke before it gets to the detector due to the dropped doorways

    • @andymac7663
      @andymac7663 2 года назад +2

      Detectors should preferably be mounted on ceilings and should be located
      at least 300 mm horizontally from any wall or light fitting unless, in the case
      of light fittings, there is test evidence to prove that the proximity of the
      light fitting will not adversely affect the efficiency of the detector. Taken from bs5839-6. It’s preferable not you must. 300mm is not always achievable in some properties.

    Must admit that I am but a poor chippie, being in the trade since 1984 I have never heard anyone in the building industry use cm's. Is this a new thing?
    I was always told that we use mm's as on a drawing a mm could never be mistaken foe a m, but a cm could.
