Shower fire revisited

Zzzzzzzzzzz

Except this case appears to prove that MI's instruction may be, in fact possibly definitely, correct as the fire could not have possibly occured if the isolator had been operated after the last use.

I'm not so sure about that "could not have possibly occured...". As I wrote earlier today ...

We can only speculate about what happened in this case. The initiation of the fire is, I would have thought, much more likely to have occurred whilst normal (high) current was flowing (whilst the shower was being used) than when the shower was not being used. If that were the case, 'isolating' the supply after the shower had last been used would not have prevented or affected the fire.

It is not nonsense. It is frequent and people should care if the errors are dangerous like this one you will have seen before.

Please provide any other example of a manufacturers instructions being incorrect. If it is a frequent occurrence as you say it is, I’m sure this will be a simple task for you.

You are mistaken. I never make things up.

You made this up:

DIY electrics is not allowed in Ireland.

Did you not read post 18?

You made this up:

I did not make it up. I read it from another member on here.

As I said I never make things up.

Do you accept that this was incorrect?

 

[winston1]

I know things are much more restrictive in Ireland than the UK.

Did you not read post 18?

Yes I did and I saw that you failed to provide any example of a manufacturers instructions being incorrect apart from the only example ever seen of this situation, your b&q cooker instructions.

It seems that his guesses, as well as his assertions, are sometimes incorrect ....

I'm guessing for a mobile mast that will be horizontal, so your antenna's elements need to be horizontal to match.

I'm guessing you are wrong. Mobile aerials on cars (when they had them) were always vertical.

I think you're probably both guessing wrong. As I understand it, virtually all GSM/LTE networks are neither vertically nor horizontally polarised, but actually 'cross-polarised' ('X-polarised') - i.e. ±45° .

I suppose that perceptions of "instantly" probably vary - you posted the original at 3:25 and edited it 25 minutes later at 3:50, giving me plenty of time to notice (and comment upon) the original

Kind Regards, John

I don't understand that at all; I made the post, read it, realised I'd got it wrong and added the extra word. There was only moments between the two. I see the times when I look, as you do. At 3:50 all I did was quote my post #44 post in #48 and I didn't notice the lack thereof in your post #46.
All I can think is it was sitting there as an 'amendment' and I unwittingly clicked save, or something like that but it makes no sense to me at all.

Hey ho.

Very odd.

Whatever you may think you did "a few moments" after you posted your original (#44) at 3.25, it obviously didn't 'work', since your original version was clearly still there when I replied (in #46, quoting your #44) 14 minutes later (at 3:39) - and my #46 only consisted of 7 words (and two emoticons), so could only have taken me a few seconds to type.

Hey ho.

As you say say, 'Hey ho' is about all one can say. Very odd!

Kind Regards, John

Why, it is an excellent example of MI being wrong.

Please show some of the less than excellent examples.

Winston. As a matter of interest what exactly is the product you keep posting this from?

Ask your friend banallsheds on the Screwfix forum. He keeps mentioning this too. Maybe he has some examples.
