    Evening.. Just wondering if anyone has any links to an explanation of the above that a customer could understand, I'm getting a bit peed off trying to explain the benefits only to get a look back as if to say 'why is this salesman trying to rip me off'? Cheers

Randomly test another five points, all +200MOhms. Marked down the fault, no CPC continuity on lighting...

    Why do some customers stand 6" behind you?

    Anyone else get this? Just changed a bathroom light and the customer spent the whole time virtually stood on the bottom rung of the step ladder staring at what I was doing. Not conducive to a good morning's work!
