What’s with the bloke escaping out of the window half way through???! Did I imagine that? 😂😂

Could it be to power a TV distribution amplifier hidden away in the loft space?

If you had turned everything off including the spur first off then you wouldn't have had to have pulled the place apart

Is that towel rail in the bathroom back to back with that spur electric?
@roydowling254213 күн бұрын
I'm guessing that spur does an outside light on what might be a balcony where the guy climbed out the window.

If its a passive vent type house could it possibly be for a central control air circulation fan in the loft. Just a guess.
@eastwayelectrical12 күн бұрын
Passive vent type house? don't know anything about that. Unfortunately the client wasn't clued up about things in the property. I was expecting a call when they found out something that was working before isn't working now.
@chrisardern459412 күн бұрын
@@eastwayelectrical a passive house is a type that basically has ducting from a central centrifugal fan that Draws stale air from each room to the fan which expels it outside and the fan also draws fresh air from outside which is sent via the fan and ducting into the rooms that are ducted. The reason being it cuts down on heating and cooling of a home and also with it being passive the windows are kept shut and the passive system stops the home becoming mouldy. The fan it to run 24/7 and is normally placed in a loft area or a voided area. Could that spur possibly run the fan. The customer would not know about it until the home starts to go mouldy. Hope this explains the passive house. Liked the video you fault find the same as me or shall I say used to as I have hung up my mega and cutters and retired.,

After spending ages trying to trace a 6mm circuit after a CU change and failing, we finally established that the old 32A shower circuit was connected to an FCU in the next room which in turn fed the macerator. The customer thought this was hilarious and asked if that meant he could do a 32 amp sh-t
@eastwayelectrical12 күн бұрын
could be, but it for the client to give this information. There are some good ideas in these comments that I didn't think of. However if the client doesn't know what should be working in there what can you do.

I wish I hadn't purchased the X1 3 times I've had to send it back. The readings are out and at times it's giving be results really slow. I should've purchased the Megger 1741+ or the Metrel M13152. My 1731 was pretty good and I would've still had it if my van hadn't been broken into. 🤬

@@scotisland Yeah I had the Metrel 3100S prior to the Megger which is essentially the same as the Martindale ET4000. The Metrel had the added Earth test function. Which I think the ET4500 has. That mft was great although it was thirsty for batteries 😂. I'll prolly end up selling the X1 and hoping to get the Metrel.
