Yeah I had it before on a job where a bug had crawled into the wiring centre and got fried across the neutrals giving me broken neutral symptoms. This one ended up being in the consumer unit itself the customer told me after the sparks had been
Customer getting the place refurbed in the future so was happy to have them like this for now. Plus it's a rental and the tenants not bothered as long as it works
Could you go into more details briefly explaining the last one please? What made you not change pcb? Should there not have been 240v on neutral? Currently doing my gas so trying to pick knowledge up.
Helps to remember that voltage is also referred to as potential difference. Using the earth as your 0V reference point there should be 240V at the live and 0V at the neutral. If both live and neutral were 240V then there would be no potential difference between them and the appliance would not operate. In this case the reason that 240V shows on the neutral in the boiler is that there is no return path for the current due to a broken neutral upstream. This is a good example of why you should never assume that something isn't live just because it's not working. Always test.

Thanks for the shout out too buddy! It’s really appreciated and a great story from you! ❤
Thanks man, glad you like it 👊🏾💙
Good video. The advert in the middle of the video was for Gundfos Go with you also in it.
Good work
Nice one 👍🏾
240 between neutral and earth is usually a broken neutral on that circuit 👍

Great vid, top drawer
Thanks 👍🏾
Are you gutted about being relegated to the second best looking Heating engineer on TH-cam now PB is out of retirement?
Top video as usual.
😂
3:38 he mentions they were teed off together I reckon he’s done it and cps gone in to pull him out of the shit 😂
👍🏾
Biggest fuck up I ever did carried a rad down 3 flights of stairs full cream carpets black shit all way down 😢 I was an apprentice
Cool light
Thanks 👍🏾
Would it not be possible to get those pipes in the ceiling?…..it’ll need a re-plaster and decorate anyway

Neutral to earth should be nothing, 240 only on neutral to live and earth to live
What he said 👌🏾

Is that whole house reverse palarity mate ? Have you got a socket tester ?
It ended up being a broken neutral in the consumer unit. The customer called me afterwards to update me
@cputilitysolutions Ah OK. You called it straight away. Nice one.
I was waiting for Nick Bundy to make an appearance.
😂
Take it from me. I thought the neck light was a gimmicky product.. until I bought one 😂
Isn't it so! 😂
Surely it was easier to cut out a large section of plasterboard and keep them in there as the joist were running your way. That looks terrible
Thanks for the feedback 👍🏾
Oh no no no
Pipework 😂
How is it a pcb fault with no neutral supply
Thanks for watching 👍🏾
Total bodge that first job. Shameful to leave pipework like that and you filmed it too 😂😂
Thanks for your comments
Not get them in the ceiling void ? You had the joists running in your favour aswell
Landlord getting the place refurbed later so just wanted the job done for now as tenants were moaning
What a bodge, sorry to say that ‘cos it’s not your usual standard
Thanks 👍🏾
Muhammad a new member of the team?
No I was just helping him get the job done 👍🏾
