@@careyskoithegummykoikeeper7817 yeah mate but the other pump was more powerfull liked using that but its all ok will do till i get the new pond up and running buddy
I had one of those switch boxes. They are a nightmare to wire stuff into. It's gone now, back to good old plugs. Looking at that raised bed behind the new pond it would make a brilliant huge bog filter. See Oz ponds on TH-cam.
Very frightening when all of the pumps and air supply for the pond goes out at the same time, not to mention the house as well. Hope you get everything sorted soon. On the positive side, the cold water has a much higher oxygen level than warm water so the fish wouldn't been impacted too much in the short term.
Hope you get it sorted soon mate, ive used an rcd to protect my circuit buddy, i bloody hate electric you cant see it or hear it untill its to bloody late 🐟👍⚡️
Never ever liked Blagdon I always use standard outdoor electrical sockets with on off lite something goes simple to unplug it change a fuse plug it back in. The blagdon is simple to change the fuse when you find which has gone but must be with the same size i think its 2 or 3amp you can also test each fuse socket with a pencil.
@@martynskoipondandgarden4581 Another point is each switch is on ready to go when you press a button so even though you may not be useing each connection each one is useing power to maintain the ready state so costing money to run.
You wouldn't of had the problem if you was RCD protected between the pond and house 👍🏻 look into it mate. All the best, Tel 😊🙏🏻😊
Cheers Tel will look into this buddy 👍

Well done for getting it sorted i use the same switch box currently and i know how flipping fiddly they are 😖

So I've had an electric problem and someone has given a thumbs down 🤣 merry Christmas my friend 👍
Hope you get it sorted soon mate, ive used an rcd to protect my circuit buddy, i bloody hate electric you cant see it or hear it untill its to bloody late 🐟👍⚡️
Jesus Lee that comment was three days ago only just got it but thanks my friend 👍
It will have been the uv that blew the fuses not the blagdon fitting
Yeah I think your right David it's going to stay on the wall till I can get around to sorting something out cheers mate 👍
nothing worse than blown electrics. my old UV was a nightmare for blowing the electrics as water used to get inside
Cheers sharpey yeah UV light units aren't as reliable as made out to be 👍
That would tick me off.. Geez sorry buddy
Hey Chris these things happen it's just another hurdle my friend it will be sorted out 👍
