    Advice on power cord options for a new dishwasher

    Hey there, I've done some simple electrical work, but I'm no expert. I'm installing a new LG 24 inch dishwasher (Model #LDT5678SS) with 120 volts and 15 amps. The power cord provided is 5.4 feet which is too short to reach the closest outlet. I need a cord that is at least 8 feet. The last...

    Has my dishwasher been ruined?

    The heat pump on my Bosch dishwasher needed replacing (it was tripping the electrics) so I called out the repairer under an extended warranty. He said the machine was jammed too tightly into a space and a cupboard at the side would need dismantling to access it, which he would not do. This might...

    Damage to my kitchen when dishwasher was being repaired

    I had a repair from a Service centre that I was obliged to use as it was still under Guarantee. The guy came to fix my dishwasher and seemed to struggle with removing the kickboards. I offered help as they clip on and off but he refused. After he left I discovered that he had snapped my...

    Diversity Calc Commercial Dishwasher 6.5kW single element

    It is a 6.5kW thermostatically controlled water heater if you ignore the rest of the gubbins. So that would be a Purpose #6 for diversity ie: None allowed. = 28A. But you could treat if like a cooker too. Purpose #3 ie: 10A + 30% FL current over the 10A. = 15.4A What do you think? Thanks

    Dishwasher power hot - too short to reach a power socket

    Hi I hope someone might be able to offer some advice to a DIYer? So I've been using my dishwasher for years and only just noticed the cable is getting hot, enough to feel very hot to touch. Only at one point for about 3 inches back from the plug (a moulded plug) I've read around and found the...

    Dishwasher tripping RCD even when not running?

    Hi Every few weeks in the last 6 months the RCD has been tripping in my house. I narrowed it down to the kitchen because the RCD wouldn't reset if all sockets in the kitchen were on. If I turned them all off I could reset it, and if I slowly turned each socket back on one-by-one everything...

    Prodis Dishwasher PRO30450 Timer Motor

    Prodis Dishwasher PRO30450 Timer Motor. Commercial dishwasher. I know that's terribly specific but I can't find anything anywhere on the net for this machine. Timer motor is defective.

    Dishwasher: outlet or hardwire?

    Hi all, I am installing a new dishwasher. I am comfortable doing this wiring because my dad was an electrician and taught me general wiring. My question is, do you think it’s better to have an outlet under the sink or just hardwire it. It seams weird to me that code would allow an electrical...

    New Bosch dishwasher very wet after cycle

    Hi I’ve just replaced my old Bosch dishwasher with a new Bosch one (SMV46GX00G). It washes well and dries the dishes reasonably well, however the inside of the machine is always covered in condensation after the cycle, as the photos show.

    Commercial dishwasher problems

    Hi all, I got a commercial dishwasher that is not working anymore. Normally when there's no water in the tank and boiler, the machine starts first filling it up with water if you close the lid. If I now close the lid, the machine is not taking water and is not filling. But the machine is...

    PATting a dishwasher

    This has no manufacturer's name, no rating plate and no CE mark. Please does this mean I must fail it, although the PAT meter says "pass"? I have inspected the flex & plug (sealed, 13 amp fuse, grip is sound).
