Wonder if there is a term for the fear of straight lines?

Yes. heterophobia....

No, sorry. That’s a fear of straight people....

couldn’t find anything from Google about fear of straight lines, but as most phobias are prefixed by the Latin.... that would be Rectaphobia....

[littlespark]

Actually it’s from the Greek... not Latin.... but rectaphobia sounded funnier

 

[Mike Johnson]

Most pointless thing ever?

You obviously have not seen "The only way is Essex"

I wonder what the Zs reading at the cooker was.........

There wasn't one - doing an EICR and I always check the continuity between any fixed conductive appliance and earth and this time it turned this up - I had to check the Zs at the appliance out of curiosity once I had pulled it out (and as it is a rental bet you can't guess the cleanliness behind the cooker)

Why anyone uses those cooker connection plates is beyond me though, and T&E to connect to an appliance don't get me started

I don't know if things have changed but 6.0mm T+E was the general way of connection to a domestic cooker. The stranded L and N were ideal for connection......at the outlet and the appliance.
In the photo example, the cores have been cut and, it looks like, the ends removed from the connections. Was it a pathetic attempt at isolation or something more sinister, I wonder?.....why not just remove the cable?
