Ok, that'll be interesting, perhaps 1.5 £M GBP, and I'd guess that your Comprehensive cover is 5 x this amount (£100/m) .. but I'd really like to know...., it would be interesting to know "what it really costs" in the UK http://www.browse.to.it/dl.jpg

I'd go for £1M... Directline in the Uk are quite good, about 15 -25 £ GBP / month (do I need to insure that the electrons flow, or do not flow.. or what..??!!)

yep, on EST at the mo... (eastern time) no "melt downs" yet...

it's definitely switching the phase (live) - just checked (on the "problem" upstairs hall light)

not sure, I'll think about that one, will use the "correct" neutral to check the "lights down" issue/trip...

MCB off, no 12V lights etc.. smoke alarms run off 9V batteries fans ... will check - yes there is one in the lighting circuit, I'll disconnect and re-check - borrowed neutrals, - another issue

might be.. check tomorrow, only take 20 mins...

An "interesting" one today... lighting circuit, everything turned off, (on all circuits and disconnected) but 85 Ohms L to N resistance, (thats 600 Watts), tested again with power on and verified by LED "blicks" on meter... thats the entire lighting circuit "on" - but NOT What can the "load"...

This is a strange one, but may have a simple answer.. upstairs light radial is from a RCD, 18ms at I downstairs light radial is via a rcbo, 28ms at I upstairs hall landing is switched by two switches, (live) connected to down radial, neutral from ? if a load (bulb) is turned on (or a megger...

Correct! 10/10 I didn't specify at what temperature, so above the melting (transisition) point it will :)

yea, those vids (of WD-40) are awesome, bit more than butane/propane/alchohol flaming, and quite a different result, the latter burns much nearer to the can and it appears that WD-40 (probably because a liquid - but still propelled out under pressure) burns up much further and higher, "don't try...
