[QUOTE="Richard-the-Ninth, post: 559157, member: 23472"] A multi meter is more use with electronics than "electrics" You can turn your fridge and freezer off for several hours with no problem, they are very well insulated to keep the cold in. Just remember you have un plugged them (so you can plug them back in 6 hours later, and do NOT open the door as it lets the heat in.) The compressor on a fridge/ freezer does not run all the time, its "random" (It actually only comes on when the inside gets warm, so unplugged is not a problem and any food will "NOT go instantly off" ) Oh, take the milk out of the fridge first, you will want a cup of tea while you wait won't you.
