    Long shot. Cooker identification.

    Anyone have a clue what this is? Can't find a model number anywhere. Only place I haven't looked is underneath. Needs a new element. Any help appreciated. All it says is Kenwood Dual Fuel.

    Using a Metrel MFT with a R2 long lead

    Hi, how can I connect my Kewtech R2 lead to my Metrel MFT so that I do not have to carry the R2 reel with me whilst doing R2 testing? There was never an issue using a Megger but the Metrel utilises a block connector instead of 3 individual leads. Thanks

    Wondered where my long nose pliers had gone!

    My Mrs borrowed my pliers the other day when we were working on a fence next to our drive. They disappeared. Went to wholesalers this morning. Guy serving me looks out the window and says, do you know there’s a set of pliers on your van roof?

    Long lead R2 test

    Hi just a quick question if doing long lead r2 test would touching a pin on a socket prove that it’s earthed for example? And if it did would it be accurate?
