  1. Indeed... I have something similar (different box!).
  2. You’re not keeping it in the gas locker like I told you, now are you?
  3. Get it calibrated. You know it makes sense Betcha it comes back from calibration reading exactly the same...
  4. Yes, but as that wasn’t your question I’d say you can ignore it
  5. Yes, that at least should be a reasonably safe bet. A few years ago I adjusted everything to match what I believed to be a calibrated Avo. It was a few months later that I compared my Avo to my Fluke which had just been calibrated and found it was a fair bit out. Like you though, I was happy that all my meters agreed (except for the Fluke) even if they were a few percent out. I never did get around to tweaking them all again.
  6. Exactly how a fridge works.
  7. Well, you had the direct answer to your question in post 2. The rest is ‘discussion’ as per the name of this forum.
  8. Farnell again... perhaps you could sell the other 90 metres... https://cpc.farnell.com/unbranded/ecwo-71/22swg-enamelled-copper-wire/dp/CB01220?ost=Enamelled+22swg
  9. I told you not to mention Woolies paint.
  10. Or (more expensively) from Amazon... RESISTOR, POWER, 0.5OHM, 300W, 10% C300KR50E By OHMITE https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B018CQCW18/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_onADFbHS3S0J7
  11. 300W 0.5R available ex-stock from Farnell: https://uk.farnell.com/multicomp/mc14654/wirewound-resistor-0-5-ohm-300w/dp/9456805 That’d give you about 25A.
  12. Yes, but not just foreigners. As I see it, they are interchangeable in some circumstances. Both of the below examples work, I believe, with no difference in meaning between them. The dog is asleep, don’t startle him. The dog is sleeping, don’t startle him. Sure, if you want to use fall as the verb then it’s pretty obvious that you’d use asleep as the adverb but I’d say that many English folk would also struggle with the difference between the two words in certain circumstances.
  13. Naughty Cal has a document on exactly how that should be operated...
  14. Come now sir, let us not be too adventurous.
  15. John hasn’t visited this forum for over a year, unfortunately. What exactly is it that you wish to sort out?
  16. Very similar but somewhat faster.
  17. Simple to DIY, and it doesn't require a Gas Safe bod because, however shoddily it's done, there is no gas.
  18. Sorry, I meant reactance, not inductance... d'oh!
  19. Then follow the advice above and find yourself a new examiner and take his advice.
  20. I suspect that the examiner meant that it must still pass BSS regs for soundness etc. But perhaps he did indeed mean a GSC in which case yes, he was wrong.
  21. OP has made 109 posts, Tony And been a member here for 11 years...
  22. Ensure you get the matching plug though
  23. Yes, that was my point. Simply capping the pipes still leaves it 'available for use', so it would require a cert. Removing the regulator and any pipes in the gas locker makes it a gas-free boat. At least, that makes sense to my mind, which doesn't necessarily mean a BSS inspector would agree.
  24. Hence my second sentence, which you didn't quote
  25. The spec of https://uk.rs-online.com/web/p/safety-site-transformers/1226709/ states RATING 3.0 kVA INTERMITTENT 5 MINS ON 15 MINS OFF Probably okay for continuous use if you're not using it close to its limit.
