Corrected the smiley for you :p:

And people wonder why electrical safety standards are so stringent in the UK. Perhaps we should link this to Barewolf's Shed (http://www.cableforum.co.uk/board/22/33671949-merged-shed-electrics.html)thread :erm:

Looks like Mr Amature thought he could save money.



Perhaps the person responsible should be renamed Mr Armature.. :D

The work actually looks familiar and is the trademark of a very famous firm of American electrical contractors, namely:

J WAYNE and W KIDD

The wiring to that light just won't be up to the job of running those motors, especially if you activated both at the same time! :shocking: No matter what a motor is rated at, the initial "push" can often draw 10x that!

i used to fit garage doors with those motors a couple of years ago and you are right the initial take off of the door takes a lot more power also because it would be working against the spring when dropping the door ,one day that cable will go up like fuse on a stick of dynamite
