With smart switches now. Neutral is a must. Nice video👍🏼👌

Thanks for sharing it with us...wtc

Well done Gaz - as you say a bit crowded and upside down! Good luck trying to draw that and also incorporate taking the feed to another switch feeding a different set of lights and just for fun why not add 2 way and intermediate :)

All those videos have been produced... lookout for them coming soon or are they available in my lighting playlists already 🤔...

Hi Gaz. Another great video, so well explained. Just a quick question. If your downlights are double insulated, what do you do with the cpc in the twin and earth cable? Do you have to use a junction box and then some cable from there that is just live and neutral?

Not sure if you have done this yet, but a video explaining the different symbols on the downlights.

Hi I need a bit of advice I have done a EICR on a rented property with no RCD the land lords wont's to fit a Masterplug RCD plug adapter 2 pole rated at 13A 13A V ac for the time being. then he wont's me to fit 3 RCD sockets 2 in the garage and 1 in the kitchen where they use it for mowing the lawn. I have looked in the REGs but can not find anything that cover this do you know if this would be acceptable.May be this could be a topic you could cover. another well explained video.

How do you install a isolator switch

What does the plate mean? Like 2 and 3 pate methods?

I always remembered it by the light fitting. If you connect the line supply into the middle loop plate on the light fitting you have to use all of the 'plates' in the light fitting (L, LOOP, N). If you wire through the switch, you only connect onto the 2 end plates in the light fitting (L&N)...

how can the downlight at 7:50 have no earth when there are clearly metal parts on the exterior.

They are class 2 equipment also called double insulated so they don’t need a CPC (earth)

@@GSHElectrical might say on the cover but how is that possible with metal exterior parts? It's possible (although admittedly quite unlikely)for a loose live from the terminals to come in contact with those metal parts. Am I being too cautious? I don't trust labelling anymore.
