What has made you Angry Today???????

[oncedisturbed]

Saw the new spinal surgeon today to find out all the previous scans and discograms were done incorrectly and and the reports meant nothing.

Now have to start all the scans again from scratch to get them right and finally (hopefully this time) find out what the hell is wrong and get it fixed.

Just what I need, all the discs being injected and pressurised again, friggen hurt bad enough last time....argh


Never underestimate the power of the tap, let it flow through you.

Well today has dented my wallet quite a bit to the point I'm nearly contemplating missing the may trip..
Lights started flickering in the shed this morning and then all power lost..
Shed is run from house line so house lost most power to..
Wife comes out and says the fuse box is crackling and popping..
That's not good..
Grab a bit of timber dowel.
Open the box to smoke and popping..
Breaker not tripped, mains still on..
So first thing was trip the breaker and kill the main..
Still popping..
We still had the old ceramic fuse wire setup and it turns out previous owners doubled up the wire..
Fark..
It had melted the wire off the back of the fuse block..
We are so lucky that it burnt out in the box and not the roof..
But still it's $900 as the old setup was toast.. all fittings and screws were stuffed..

Ok the upside it's all proper and up to spec again..

On the downer is we only have 6mm mains cable coming in and a 40A fuse on the house..
So any future shed will mean new mains upgraded to carry the extra load..
And in now $900 down..

Insurance?

Far out, $900, I know a bulknof this would have been labour but what was replaced?

The whole board and re wired.. the only bits left alone were the meters..

Insurance?

I doubt it.. it was caused by the idiots prior to use..
What angle are you think of though?? It's worth asking.. will save me some cash..

Your switchboard caught fire because of a faulty fuse

A couple of drops of dishwashing liquid in a cup of water to dip your finger in works great

I tried just water and it stuck to me and was setting very very quick. I'll add some soap next time. Learning allot the hard way

Yea an old ceramic with fuse wire which had been doubled up..
Not sure how it'll go

Well it would have passed a building inspection before purchase? It should be covered. Its certainly worth the call anyway.

Sounds like you were indeed lucky & upgrading is for the best. So you have proper circuit breakers/RCD's now in place of fuses now?
