    Deep power surge last night I noticed, could this be the cause?

    Last night while laying down, I heard my air purifier and a little fan that was going almost cut off from a power surge but then it went back to functioning normal. It did it once more about 1 minute later and then I never heard it again the reset of the night. Also yesterday when I got home...

    Went to a job today and noticed a length of metal conduit going across a pathway. The metal conduit is not earthed.

    I just wondered what people’s thoughts were as to weather it should be earthed being an extraneous conductive part? It’s fixed to the concrete floor and if there was a break down in insulation there could be a potential difference. If you do bond it could it be introducing a risk? 1598092922...

    Epcs solar savings number

    I have noticed that the EPC figures for a 2.5kw system for the solar savings is extremely higher than any other method for working out the savings. Anyone else noticed this and surely this is extremely misleading? RECC figure is nearly half of this for SAVINGS alone. regards

    Shower light on when shower not on?

    Hi, I've noticed my shower power light is on when the shower isn't in use, it's no-where near as bright, quite dim but flickering. After this shower has been used it doesn't happen. I have a couple of ideas, but would appreciate thoughts. Thanks.

    fluke test meter boxes

    I've noticed that these have some kind of a black seal around the lip, and was wondering if anyone owns one and does it stop moisture getting in when you leave test gear in the van overnight. I've started bringing my metrel in at night as its only the standard fabric bag that it came with.
