I do not believe judges here are accountable for their decisions, to anyone.

Monthly living expenses. Regardless of the truth. It's none of their d... business

I can not agree. I recently did a transfer from UK bank (in £) - Wize - my Thai bank (in baht ) . From UK bank to SCB, including email /app / SMS notifications, was less than 10 minutes...even though Wise said could be up to 2 days! And rates were fantastic!

I consider myself one of the worlds' less heavy pilots, at 70kg, so won't think about one of these!

Post of the week!

So, is it possible to apply for a CoE from the Embassy of the country to which you are going, before you have even got there? e.g. for a day/3day/1week trip on business to Singapore? (Never mind the other questions like are there flights or what do the SGs think/want/do)

Your choices miss the obvious! Had first AZ, next AZ due 27 Oct. FOC!

"Any business owner with at least 2 functioning brain cells"......Aye, there's the rub, for in the truth of TIT, theres damn few and they're a' deid. (To paraphrase a couple of quite well known poets).

Is that his blood on the road, and his headprint on the tailgate?

Ok for him to talk. He's got a submarine on order.

So, as a State employee, if I torture and murder someone, I get 25 years and or a ½m fine. As private citizen, 500bt and a Wai.

If you have to ask these questions, I strongly recommend you do not DIY! Find and/or pay someone at least knowledgeable and experienced, and preferably qualified.

Was this a mop(h)-up operation?

Sink earthed, yes. Water is from Mubaan borehole and high level storage tank. Its about 250 metres away. Because of Covid we have no very near neighbours.

Well it is the German Tourists' irri dep.......

Does it occur to anyone that the reason rich people are rich is; they don't waste their money. All the rich people I have ever met are not necessarily tight, but certainly careful with their money. And those who are not, soon cease to be rich!

Capacitive load.

I had similar thoughts, but can't get my head round it. And I have only one spike, and I would agree a few volts possible, even likely, but 200? Free power folks, just connect across two spikes and you can run your EV free, forever!

Personally, I think the "mystery shopper" is the way to go. Anonymous reviewer pays cash for the goods and services provided, and gets refunded his costs by his employer. The service provider or the reviewing body is invoiced cost plus fees and expenses for the impartial review.

Legrand breaker on the right is a 30mA RCD. None in the main box.

Yes, one meter probe in my fingers, other on the sink, dry rubber shoes on a dry tiled floor. Meter has 9k ohm/v impedance, 50uA fsd so perfectly safe. Water conducting electricity...yes I agree, but from where when power is off? Not any of the water heaters. Static? Unlikely to maintain a steady voltage, grounding it should leak the charge away. I think @Crossy has it, a PEA fault which they have found and corrected. I cannot conceive how I would explain the problem to them or seek to know the answer, my Thai is not up to it and no Thai I know would begin to understand!

Hello @Crossy here are the photos. Numbered items: original box, 1&2 feed to secondary box, 3 grounding from secondary box, 4 N-E link. It looks messy but it's safe. Grounding rod is 6' buried immediately under a roof drain pipe. Checked again today, 0v at sinks etc. One fridge shows 15 v, it has a 2-pin plug and no earth, coffee machine 5v again not earthed.

Ok, update. My property is a 30-ish year old townhouse, with mostly original wiring, modified some 10 years ago, and added to by myself. The mains feed is underground from the mubaans' transformer and through their meter. I have no access to check all that out. There is no original earthing, as expected. I have installed a new box with ELB for the back yard, with live and neutral feed from the original main switch downstream side, and a new ground from a spike and linked back to the original box, where it is bonded to neutral. As it is some two years since I did it, I could not remember making that link. Interestingly when the incident occurred the ELB did not trip. To me this suggests a fault in the main house. Thanks for all interest, and constructive comments. I will open up and photograph asap.

Thank you, I have the diagrams and the theoretical knowledge. What I don't have, and don't want, is the experience of the big bang if it all goes wrong. So, were you lucky and all went well? Does anyone out there bear the scars, mental or physical, of it going wrong? Just asking!

I am waiting for someone to advise me how to ensure it is safely done, without causing a blackout to the entire nation, or killing myself!
