Alcazar Posted January 21, 2005 Share Posted January 21, 2005 Well, my new Screwfix catalogue arrived today. The first thing I did was to turn to the electrical pages.Still no double pole MCBsDouble pole RCD's the same price as in FranceAnd worst of all, they now stock the "new" wiring for a rewire in Blue, Brown and earth, (as used in France), but the earth is STILL not insulated, and STILL looks to be thinner than the other two conductors, so still no goEven the cables for conduits are STILL Red, Black, Green/YellowOh well, French prices it is thenAlcazar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gyn_Paul Posted January 21, 2005 Share Posted January 21, 2005 Yes, and still got those grotty sockets with the square pins, the boxes for which are too deep for a stud wall, and an hour's graft to excavate in a brick oneThis Screwfixfix is clearly doing you no good at all and shoiuld be discontinued immediately. I would prescribe for you instead the arrivages catalogue from Brico Depot (topical application only: not to be taken internally).paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
