Esso49 Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 Impressive and a novel approach to avoid the use of a junction box . Not too sure as why he needed to fuse the wires together though. Good to see he was wearing safety glasses and gloves Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crossy Posted August 20, 2018 Author Share Posted August 20, 2018 I'm not sure why he needed to strip and twist that much copper, it wasn't going anywhere even before he welded the ends. Suitably sized Wagos would be a lot faster although not as cheap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bankruatsteve Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 Wow. Please do not let Thai sparks see the drill segment. Rubber boots and gloves - wonder if the circuits were live. A plus for using heat shrink? Maybe remnants of Communist predilection for making things labor intensive? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KhunBENQ Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 Innovative I also have no idea what the purpose of this fusing is. Some Russian language knowledge might help here. "Sealing" to avoid "film" (what's the right word)? Should I show it to the village "electricians"? 6 minutes ago, Esso49 said: Good to see he was wearing safety glasses and gloves This would confuse them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carlyai Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 Very nice... he's Trumped it...we can learn a lot of the Russians.Only thing I saw wrong was there was no toilet seat. It's really a bother as you can't leave it up when you're finished.Sent from my SM-J700F using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
worgeordie Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 A belt and braces sparky, and using all the proper gear, a Thai electrician, would ask what are the green wires for ? and add Thai wires, and electricity are different no need to do all that. regards worgeordie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Led Lolly Yellow Lolly Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 (edited) The fusing eliminates the risk of a corroded or oxidised connection (corrosion or oxidation increases resistance, heat, and is commonly a source of connection failure or fire). I actually liked what I see, although I would have used two or three layers of heat shrink. I might start using that method myself! (my fingers suffer from 'wire nut fatigue', probably an age thing).

As it looks like a reasonably safe and compact way to connect a large number of wires. Regettably the word has been usurped and now has virtually the opposite meaning Trumped: Quote Trumped: To completely mess something up. Quote Trumped:To be ****** over in new and imaginable ways on a regular basis Quote Trumped:When a woman is inappropriately touched, grouped or kissed on the lips by a man without her permission. Quote Trumped:To r**e a women, blame it on a Mexican, and not let the women pay to get an abortion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Certanly my immediate thought followed the Trumped meaning rather than the trumped meaning Though I liked your toilet observation.

(Though I think another meaning was intended).I have serious panic attacks when I fly because of toilets. If I use one and it's up when I come in, do I leave it up when I leave? Makes me eat and drink the free wine to stay calm. Sent from my SM-J700F using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
