| daftykins | PHEW, what a day | 21:20 |
|---|---|---|
| daftykins | so my old single-phase electric supply got cut and transferred to the new 3-phase today... unfortunately on getting home my neighbour text me to say he was without juice | 21:20 |
| daftykins | turns out they goofed... there is now a hosepipe like cable going through my letterbox and into his, tapping power off the 'head' inside my front cupboard :) | 21:20 |
| zxmpi | couldn't you just give him a bucket of leccy like the olden days | 22:29 |
| daftykins | ah you know how it goes, you give them a bucket one day, they want 2 the next... and so on... | 22:31 |
| penguin42 | daftykins: They gave you a full 3 phase? | 22:36 |
| daftykins | yep | 22:40 |
| daftykins | oddly i looked closer at my pics and i see strips marked 0, 1, 2, 3 on the new line - fascinating how they splice, i watched the entire process | 22:41 |
| daftykins | as they cut the sheath off the new they found a label too, says it was made by Pirelli in 1977 | 22:41 |
| penguin42 | haha, so what are you going to do with a 3phase? | 22:42 |
| daftykins | nothing! the upgrade was fully decided by them | 22:42 |
| daftykins | i still have an old Wilex/Wylex porcelain fuse wire board on this place :) | 22:43 |
| daftykins | fascinating video of a chance rescue btw: https://youtu.be/3D9LK_MMzfY | 22:48 |
| penguin42 | daftykins: Did they give you three meters or just wire one phase? | 23:00 |
