So politicians proved wrong yet again about what people want. Trump's In. so what for Britain. people voted out to be told in court no. democratic voters ignored will be the worst thing for any government to contend with. the aftermath of a non brexit decision in supreme court will play havoc I'm sure. total public disbelief . we shall see but wait. if we do exit eu. our brexit does this mean no 18th edition. Lol.
So trumps in what next

The 18th will be here by 2017, the Americans have a vested interest in it.
Really?
Surely the Germans make 10mA RCD's???

Worse than that ]
you gonna let the cat out the bag?.
Arc monitoring breakers.
and 2pin sockets, ]
AFDD's (American AFCI's) are looming on the horizon, their introduction must be avoided if at all possible.
I''ll go in to more detail later, our main defense is the differences in voltage and wiring systems.
What's next? The vote in Italy the weekend after next!
It would be better if the mods would start a new thread about AFDD's in the electrical section
Better get reading then....

:lol:
Simple solution, bring everything up to the 17th edition, make it mandatory, mandatory inspections every 5years, make regs free and get rid of all the acronyms.
There is this thread:

AFDD basics . Arc fault detection devices are extremely sensitive and designed to sense and respond only to potentially dangerous arcs. They use a special algorithm to distinguish between dangerous and working arcs – i.e. the harmless sparks that you see when you flick a switch or pull a plug.
This is important as over-sensitive AFDDs could be prone to nuisance tripping – e.g. interrupting a circuit when it senses the slightest harmless arc

(OT) So according to this thread President Trump will force the UK to adopt some carpy American Arc breakers that not one person in the UK actually wants or has any interest in whatsoever .
He will also force us to change the voltage to 110V so they can export electrical goods to us straight from stock , followed by talks for us to become the 51st state of the US when a wall will be built along the south coast to keep Mexicans out.
All together now ......
America ! America !
God shed His light on thee
And crown thy good with brotherhood
From sea to shining sea. !

Mmmmm,
Maybe that was Hilary's point if view,
I think Trump is more real in the world.

Trump is a businessman so he'll want to trade with us.
Unlike Obama who threatened to put us at the back of the trade queue if we brexited.
Our relationship with the good ol usa will continue whether we like it or not.
Either way we're still handcuffed to a courgetting idiot.
I'm not sure about the veg/swearing code here, please feel free to update me.

Back to the trump question.
Very little will change. We will all just get on with our lives, just as before. A bit like the Brexit vote, the world didn't end, there was no emergency budget to fill the hole because the economy had crashed.
I think it all show just how little what politicians do, actually changes anything. We all carry on in spite of what they do, not because of what they do.
Re the arc detector thing. I confidently predict I will never install one. I am banking on retirement happening before that comes into force. Let it be someone else's problem. There won't ever be any in my own house.
