Disconnect the ring. Put a lamp as load on o/p of switch, does it trip, if yes switch duff. If not break ring half way, connect one side of ring then the other side, one side will probably take it out the fault is on that leg, then narrow it down further.

Why don’t you run your own cable, use sat cable as it is double shielded (braid and foil) connect it up and if that doesn’t fix it buy or get an aerial fitter to fit a new head.

When the sun comes out it’s boat time!!

Thanks for all your answers. I have tried all suggestions and had no success, so have decided to go down the grid switch fuse and 20A dp key switch route.

Hi Guys. Looking for a manufacturer that produces a 13A switched fused spur, No neon and a Recessed switch. I can’t find one but one of you guys might know someone.

It’s a fairly common recording format these days its just the size of the file when you post them online, which is why you have to compress them to a smaller file type. There are several apps that do this VLC being one, Adobe and several others. the rendering is what takes the time.

I still work for a chemist chain of shops. I got them to open their own CEF A/C so I only charge labour, otherwise that £1000 quickly mounts up. I only work in a maintenance roll as I am retired

I help a charity electrically that does up dolls houses to sell. I can do a rewire in a day!! 🤣🤣

I would think if the supply has RCD protection it’s not a problem, but if not, supplementary bonding should be in place.

No, I think it was more of a safety thing, extraneous metal, and all that

The mobile racks we used in broadcast TV had 10mm earth cable connected it was a multi strand (very fine) not like the solid 7/9 core in general earthing but if it’s a fixed rack that’s not an issue.

If it needs earthing you will find specific lugs for that and the side panels will already have fly-leads in place.

I am always amazed when you open them up and the cable size is so small!!

Are you able to shield the battery cables?

Orange (3) is bell so not really necessary 2&5 line The polarity these days is not so important. The old Trim phones were polarity conscious! As an aside BT don’t like people messing with the master box and have prosecuted in the past. The new master boxes have a clamp system for the cables.

I agree with C15JON They all share neutrals with a common RCD, so low/short insulation N-E will give same result!!

did you turn off or isolate the cooker? I would have been inclined to make a lead with open end to 13a socket!

And with AI coming to the fore, we are all Bu**ered

“Spoonerisms”!!

Problem is Binky, the annoying sales callers are using equipment to scramble no’s so it looks like a local call
