Welcome to 1971weights and measures is pretty standard except for the US, but UK still uses crazy stuff like stone and troy ounce, and their pints aren't a pint.
little platic thing inside, they call them shutterstamper resistant how? can't turn it right side up?
Guess I will have to put boxes of recepticals alongside my boxes of incadescent bulbs in the bunker. Fawk the .gov.FYI - America now has Tamper Resistnat Ones MANDATED in new construction..
3-prong.nice receptacles
I spent an entire day swapping those out of my brother's new house after the electrical inspection...those and the new circuit breakers...damn things have their own safety-trip switch and something as simple an turning off the vaccuum or a hair dryer would trip the breaker safety.FYI - America now has Tamper Resistnat Ones MANDATED in new construction..
New breakers? Expensive? No more $3 Murray ones?...those and the new circuit breakers...damn things have their own safety-trip switch and something as simple an turning off the vaccuum or a hair dryer would trip the breaker safety.
Or the drill has a fault that the breaker is reacting to and which will get worse so that one day...When we were using a big-assed corded-hammer drill in the basement to anchor stuff to the wall, the breaker tripped every time we released the drill trigger. Fawking worthless.
Doubtful. Brand-new Milwaukee bought just for the job.Or the drill has a fault that the breaker is reacting to and which will get worse so that one day...

After the inspection, we swapped them all out and sold them back to the contractor.
We exclusively use tamper resistant duplex recepts and I have never heard of this.I spent an entire day swapping those out of my brother's new house after the electrical inspection...those and the new circuit breakers...damn things have their own safety-trip switch and something as simple an turning off the vaccuum or a hair dryer would trip the breaker safety.

Not my decision to make.you mean like afci breakers?
I'm not positive but I think if I did that here to my brothers house after the inspection and his house burnt down due to electrical, his insurance would not pay him. He'd be fawked.
I never heard of them either until he had his house built last year.We exclusively use tamper resistant duplex recepts and I have never heard of this.
