I don't really know what I ultimately intend to do with it - but now that...
Hello sparks,
I'm looking for some advice as to see how I can wire up and test hand dryers prior to purchase. As they're generally unwired, without a plug connected. I have some basic electric screwdrivers from TLC as well as an electric tester and some basic strip pliers from TLC. I'm familiar...
Sucker for a freebie, so I bought a new set of insulated screwdrivers as at some time in the future, the ones I’ve got will wear out... As part of the purchase I was promised a “free gift”

Hi all,
I'm wondering where people purchase their din rail terminal connectors from for extending consumer unit cables?

Thanks,

Hey all,
Just looking at spending on a new MFT and was looking at the higher end MEGGER 1730 but a few years back on here there were a lot of posts citing major flaws with the tester.
