With these wide variety in prices, if you need an accurate estimate, it’s advisable to get in touch with a local electrician who’ll be able to pay a visit to your home or property and provide you with a reasonable quote for your unique electrical project.

There’s a need to ensure that all the paperwork are in place,before putting your house up for sale on the property market. An very good example of such essential document is the Electrical Installation Certificate (EIC) which is used as a proof to attest to the fact that the electrical installation works carried out on the property in question was actually done and also whether or not it satisfies the building regulations. It’ll be a contravention of the law to put your house up for sale or actually sell it without producing this important document. Therefore, if you’re looking to sell your house you may wish to know the electrical documentations you need to complete the task. In this post, we aim to provide you an in depth insight into the electrical certificates needed to sell your house while also helping you make informed decisions along the process. Let’s take a look!
You’ll need to obtain two certificates in the event whereby the electrical work done was performed by a registered and qualified electrician. The two documents include:
In addition, the local building control body must be provided with a copy of these documents. In such an event whereby the electrical work was completed after 2013 and either it was done by yourself or by an individual who isn’t a registered professional, then there’s a need to make sure that work is inspected by a registered third party certifier within 5 days of completion. If the work is found to be satisfactory, you’ll be issued a copy of an Electrical Installation Condition Report.
Can You Replace Storage Heaters With Electric Radiators?
The short answer to this question is yes. If your outdated storage heater is not heating your home the way it should, you’ll find a better replacement in electric radiators.
Being more modern and efficient, electric radiators offer a wide range of benefits which storage heaters can only dream of. Let’s have a look.
• Unlike storage heaters, electric radiators do not need to be charged up the night before which makes it totally controllable as you do not have to guess what your heating needs will turn out to be the next day.
• The above benefit leads to an even better one as the controllability quality of electric radiators makes them a lot more efficient than storage heaters. Electric radiators usually comes with programmable timers and thermostats which allows you to set various heating schedules for each of your rooms, meaning you’re only heating when and where its needed.
• Unlike some storage heaters, electric radiators do not cause wall blackening and also happen to more elegant and stylish.
• Electric radiators are not tough on allergies like storage heaters as they do not depend mainly on convection to heat
• Electric radiators also have an easy installation process with all you need to do to switch from storage heater to one being the removal of the former and inserting the radiators into the sockets.
However, if you want to make a switch to electric radiators, there’s the need to change to a standard electricity tariff from your economy tariff. And while the standard electricity tariff rates may be more expensive than the night time rate provided by Economy 7, the standard tariff rates are a bit cheaper than the daytime Economy rate. You’ll also get to use much less of electricity while also saving money on your heating bills and more.
With each year that passes, the amount of electric cars on the road keeps rising and with them comes a necessity to develop new infrastructures and also accessories like charging cables as well as connectors for easy sustainability. This concept is still pretty much new to the general public as most people still use vehicles that are fuelled by petrol and diesel. There are also some differences in design which asides from the lack of an engine underneath the vehicle’s bonnet, the way in which an electric car is filled up largely varies petrol or diesel powered vehicles. There’s a lot that people will have to learn about electric cars and even more so when it comes to their everyday use. One of the most common questions a lot of individuals ask about electric cars is whether all electrical vehicle chargers are the same. If you’re also looking for an answer to this question, then you’ve come to right place!
If you’re interested in getting an electric car, charging your vehicle at home may not generate any major concern but what about making use of the public charging system? This is when it gets a bit confusing because if you’ve never had to do it before you may worried about making use of the wrong charger on your car. So the question is, does every electric vehicles have the same plug? The answer is simple - there are different plugs and cables for varying electric vehicle brand as well as points of use. In general, you’d have to choose most suitable charging level for your electric vehicle.

It has three connecting points - one for the battery, one for the solar panels and the last for Direct Current (DC) identify the one for solar panels and connect accordingly.
• Connect the battery to charge controller. The charge controller possess two terminals for the battery - the positive and negative terminals. Connect the positive terminal to the positive of the battery and also do the same for the negative.
