⚡ Test Your Tester First Before you trust your 240V tester, make sure you know it’s actually working. We take a look at the EFO PU240 Proving Unit and how it can be used to prove your tester is functioning correctly before carrying out your checks. It’s also a seriously handy bit of kit when you’re working at a property with no power available and still need a reliable way to prove your tester. Small bit of gear. Important part of testing safely. ⚡ Sparkies Helping Sparkies. 🌐 www.electricalhowto.com.au.@FLUKE Australia

Rather than leaving it buried behind whatever ends up in the cupboard, we’re relocating the switchboard to the front of the wardrobe where it can be properly accessed. A good example of why switchboard location matters, and something worth keeping an eye out for on existing installations. ⚡ Sparkies Helping Sparkies. 🤝 www.electricalhowto.com.au
