yeah, but put it to the apprentice. its in the multipliction

good one for young aprentices. the look of bafflement after you finish talking! 3 blokes live in a flat, decide to go buy tv. at tv shop, assistant salesman says "i got just the set for you, £30. easy, £10 each!" off they go with the set, back to the flat. manages comes back, asks...

median rings a bell from somewhere. if its right then cheers to alastairreid for the memory jog!

quote Adapted for the cold, polar bears have a thick fur coat. The coat of a polar bear can appear in a number of color variations from pure white to creamy yellow to light brown, depending on season and angle of light. A polar bear's black skin absorbs heat from the sun, helping it stay warm...

cheers for the info! didnt know you could use them as triacs, but there again i dont go down to component stuff. knew the resistor was a current limiter, but again, didnt know without it a neon draws infinate current till something gives. do know tho there a pain in the ar5e when insulation...

brown? by process of elimination only, (next poster say black....) on the whole, i'd agree with wotan tho'.

not that im gonna short a resistor out to try this, but how do you know its 180v? what does the double wiggle bit indicate? (and where's the button for it on the keyboard, as i dont seem to have it!)

yep! bet me to it! 240 volt straight up the finger end! have one and never used it.

what exactly do you mean by "hazardous"? impression i get is you will need explosion proof enclosures and glanding, but fail to see why you would want lathes, millers, heaters etc in this kind of environment?

only used ptfe on compressions where the nut has been nipped up too tight and squashed the olive so far into copper that it then wont nip up tight enough to form a seal. normally its dark, late, outside, raining, cold, etc and if it holds, it stays!

apparently doors that opened into the room (away from wall) was for asthetic reasons- being that you had to be completely in the room and saw the "beauty" of it all at once, rather than the door opening to the wall side and getting a sneaky peek into the room before it fully opened. i need to...

is it on economy 7, or timer, or what? is there a neon light on the switch / spur?

That would only mean that the neon would never go out. My money is on a dodgy connection at the switch.... oh dear, major blonde moment :oops: does the shower work when the neon is on, and is this when the rotary dial says it should be off?

they only go with a small click and once reset will give the symptoms you describe. i suspect you already reset it without realising and are now trying to reset something that doesent need it. failing that, the bi metallic strip that actuates it has become so hot its now flexible instead of...

guess you have supply / switch wire ar5e about face.

i should but i dont always... when i swap like for like, very rarely will i test earth continuity or insulation resistance (talking the lighting circuit here) due to the hassles of de lamping everything, but i do check the e.l.i. especially if its got metal bits on it. re. mwc, i altered the...
