Chris Bb Posted February 23, 2011 Report Share Posted February 23, 2011 put it in my tumble dryer it blew 3 yesterday Have you tried a six inch nail as a fuse? I'm lead to believe that they don't blow anywhere near as fast! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DSPUK Posted February 23, 2011 Report Share Posted February 23, 2011 I was working at a very expensive private school and the handyman was showing me his collection of 13amp plugs he had cut off appliances - one stood out above rest - The student had stripped all the insulation of all three wires down to same level - clamped wire into plug so all three wires were about 5mm from clamp - they then twisted each bare wire as tight as they could and carefully ran them to each terminal - was a very neat job and not one touched the other.- the rest were foil and nails etc. Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
