Switch built into the socket

No I just had an MFT and I was just having a quick practice of how to use it. Then stumbled across this 'issue'.

No USB, no neon indicators or anything... just standard sockets.

No it has been lived in. Everything works fine. I was just testing my MFT initially. Until I came up with this reading.

Yeaah guys im gonna split the ring and see what's going on. Its a new build apartment and has its own CU in the apartment

Good point I'm using kewtech R2 test connector to comment my megger too.

Hi all, I’m testing a domestic ring final with my megger MFT and have come across some weird insulation resistance readings. Here’s what I’ve done and observed: Setup: Disconnected the circuit completely from the CU/MCB. All sockets and other loads switched off. Tested all six conductors...

seen this offer and considering buying it. But seems like rhe combi drill has a plastic chuck. Anyone had something similar? Is it worth the price or stay clear? https://www.screwfix.com/p/dewalt-dck407p2t-gb-18v-2-x-5ah-li-ion-xr-brushless-cordless-4-piece-kit/746rg

Yeah I seen some cheap makita ones at screwfix. Nor sure if it's worth it just to get the brushed motor ones over brushless?

You're right mate. I'm so tempted to get the makita one you mentioned sits well within my budget. Someone else posted this 4 piece set below for £379. Which is way above my original budget. But I'm thinking I'd probably need a multi tool and sds as well. If I end up buying the makita . I'll end...

Yeah I think this is a good shout. Just need a multi tool with it as well

Thanks for this, I seen this I read it used brushed motor , however I should look for brushless? How important is that for a sparky ? Brushed vs brushless ?

Thanks for your reply :) I have all the manual tools like screwdrivers etc Megger MFT Got a Black and decker cordless drill. Last year I went to shadow a few guys. Got p1ss taken out of me for that. So I just need power tools tbh.

That's a good shout

I read somewhere stay away from 2nd hands as there's lost of fakes about . Is this bullsh1t?

Hey I do appreciate all the info mate I really do. I reposted in this section as I was hoping to see if anyone found any decent deals. But all the extra info you gave has really helped as I've done Limited work but mainly college.

Leeds mate

Made a thread in the electric section whilst having a few useful replies , sadly it seems the thread has derailed. Anyway I've just completed my level 3 electrical installing course but i need tools. So does anyone know any decent drill sets , multi tools that are going at a decent price...

Any actually suggestions for this guys ?

Thanks for the replies gents... just so you know when I was doing mu level2 I was shadowing a couple of sparkies told then I had my own drillset. Pulled out my black and decker they p1ssed themselves laughing at it. They told me never to take that on a site if I ever was to work on a site. Lol...
