Electric touch hob not coming on (plus consumer unit issue)

[westward10]

The way this kitchen install is going I wouldn't be surprised if the magnet itself has forgotten what metal is. Thanks a lot for all your help

No worries I think we would like to know an outcome at some point.

So W10, are you ready to admit you were wrong yet ?

Cast alloy of some sort, not necessarily high ferrous content.

I'll definitely make sure I let you know what happens. Thanks again

Sorry Dave, not used to using inferior boards so maybe I was incorrect, odd magnet doesn't stick though. I am currently beating myself with a stick.

For the money they're actually a pretty decent unit, very sturdy.

Have you paid him?

What certificates did he give you?

Has he promised to get the labc part p done?

The hobs display isn't lighting at all and it isn't tripping the circuit breaker. Have tested the cable with be of those cheap pens that you just hold near a cable and it flashes and beeps. When the 6amp circuit breaker is on it beeps, flick it off and it doesn't meaning that the MCB hasn't failed right?

The odd thing is that two identical hobs have been tried and neither will light up or anything.

Any ideas?

Hi,this is the sentence which worries me...who did this "testing by substitution?"

If it was the "electrician"...then,he is not.
