good, Miggins is very confused...as normal

the best way to check what is happening is to remove the cover whilst in the shower and have a poke about

YES INDEED! they have modified the case a little since I bought mine.

A fucking five year old would have had more comprehension - then half of the fuckwits went home and wouldn't come back because the supports for my home are old trees and "possesed by ghosts" for fucks sake!

Can you imagine calling Dyno Rod and they all fuck off because they are scared of ghosts? The blokes were in their mid thirties for Christ's sake...I even had one try to wrap himself round a tree begging for mercy...he was pissed though, I'll give him that!

No such thing as a 10kw heater. Correct Power equals I X V. 10kw is like 5 two bar fires and unless you've have special cable fitted, like paralleled cooker cable then all that would happen is you would start a fire.

No such thing as Santa Claus too !

Not on a 30 Ampere breaker, we are on a 60 Ampere set up, (that used to deliver about 5 amps - nor is it 220V it is 233Volt)

And AC is a little different to DC - Phase, RMS "Z" rather than "I"etc, etc. they are not really the same.

maybe they went home because you were the arsehole?

Yeah, ok. 6.6 kw dc. is about 4.5 ac kw. 1.414, 0.707. RMS

3 phase. 415 volts across phase. Consumer supply. I don't think so.
