Tripping of circuit caused by an extension lead.

It's probably an iffy Chinese translation of the word cable.

well its closer than an 'ovulating fan'

my advice is "to avoid tripping, don't take LSD" Mebbe that's what they meant!

Certainly, an extremely long XT lead might cause some probs, but your standard 4-gang bank of sockets should be fine... try it and see... but if it happens to kill the lights, don't trip over the extension lead on the way to the consumer unit.

Peace... love and misunderstanding.

deano.

I had a knife that warned "keep out of children". And a packet of nuts on an airline that said "Warning: May contain nuts". I should bloody well hope so!

Christian.

Ah! Those again. Like the warning on the base of a Tesco trifle. "Keep other way up".

Scanning quickly through a few hundred unread articles I parsed that as "Tesco rifle." I suppose when Tesco operate in the USA (if they don't already) ...

I remember looking at the bag for a TV accessory (a coax flylead or similar) identifying the item concerned by means of its "Prat no."

The chain cutter in my local shed was labeled "Not for pubic use" at one point.

Sounds reasonable.........

The message from John White contains these words:

Would that be the Golders Green branch?

Most bags of "nuts" served by airlines are Peanuts (cheap) Which are not really nuts and are OK for people with nut allergies.

The warning is that the peanuts are packed in the same facility that packs real nuts (not cheap) and therefore the Peanuts may be contaminated.
