:coat Cheers chris, i was getting ahead of myself by calculating the load but never posted it. Guinness

Hi sparkatus, If the element has blown and you do a continuity check, then you would get no return. You could also do a tong test to see if the appliance is taking the correct load. If for example the element is 2000w and you do a continuity check, a healthy element would be around 26.45 ohms...

My irn bru kept freezing up, was a fun job though. My point is , if your cable is gonna be visable then make a neat job of it cos it will only annoy you if you don't. especially if you see it on a regular basis. :D

You can test circuit with the appliance connected and switched on, "Dead test" and disconected from the db. Like m4tty said short the line and neutral together and test to earth. Its the same princible as portable appliance testing, the pat machine shorts out L + N together and tests to earth...
