    Re: IKEA DATID Oven, tripping RCD intermittently.

    pat tester or a insulation tester (megger)

    if its low enough will show up on a standard multimeter ohms scale

    you are looking for a reading to earth. to blow an rcd it has to be under 8000 ohms. so suspect anything under 100,000.
    common electrical testing expects readings above 500,000 ohms

    also if the cooker has a loose connection that start arcing that will blow the trip. that also includes the socket or main its wired to

    things are going that way with RCBO’s that way each circuit has its own trip.
    reason its not common as always cost

    Re: IKEA DATID Oven, tripping RCD intermittently.

    its almost certainly an element but the problem is which one

    to understand what might be going on you have to understand your trip. The trip measures the current going in and out of your house and looks for differences. If over 0.03 of an amp goes in and not out it trips. the problem comes because it is monitoring the whole house. if your oven has a leakage of 0.02 it wont trip but if you turn on something else with a leakage of 0.012 it will trip. both of these appliances will not trip on their own but will if turned on at the same time

    Re: HOW FAR WOULD YOU WALK TO A JOB

    have to walk a bit in city centres but if there is a parking charge they pay. its not my fault that there is nowhere to park. quite often adds £12 onto a bill to park.
    now residents only schemes are another nightmare. residents round here are only allowed 2 permits (and they have to pay for them) and if they have 2 cars game over. wont stay unless they can give me a permit or they pay the parking charge if I do. most of the time the client sits in the window looking for blue banded traffic vultures ( traffic wardens)

    Re: Neff Duswasher No power

    see what you mean about owners manual bit simple

    no yours has no child lock, I presume you tried the 2 buttons to reset programme

    there was a recall on Neff machine around when yours was built
    https://dishcareaction.com/en-gb/neff

    check if yours is in this if its not been done already

    if all this fails time to strip the timer and look for blown tracks (with power off)

    Re: Neff Duswasher No power

    quite often holding a button for over 10 secs. something a child would not do

    look in the owners manual but just try holding the start button for 10 to 15 secs see what happens

    that’s the problem with connect you have to phone up and fight for a decent discount. I would not mind if it was just once but you have to do it for every part you order. I don’t use them unless I have to
