New Regulations could mean price hike!
The general public that may be not aware that new electrical industry regulations known as the ’18th edition wiring regulations’ have recently come into force.These regulations to any NICEIC contractor or similar body it is our bible.
Now the weather has warmed up, many householders turned to DIY projects, without knowing the dangers and it could end up costing them more then they think.

k of 5 from my local DIY chain for a tenner.

Lamps: The Pre-electrical Era
The invention and first usage of lamp can be dated back to 70,000 BC. At that time, there was no metal or bronze to make lamps instead the then civilization used hollow rocks and shells. These hollow rocks were filled with moss and other natural substances and then soaked in animal fat.
