  1. No rain, but we get the little ants now and then. There is a "sensitivity" dial on the c.u. set at 5mA. It goes as high as 25mA.
  2. About once every 10 days or so, the main breaker in our c.u. trips. The only things using power are the fridge, a clock, and the wifi router. Any ideas appreciated.
  3. I've noticed some of the fittings for pvc water pipes have brass threads. I'm wondering if they are supposed to be better than plastic threads, or are they for a special purpose?
  4. Thanks everyone, going to Global House tomorrow to see what they have.
  5. 1/2 inch pipe is almost 1 inch in diameter. Do they make 1 inch bits ?
  6. Do they make longer bits? Before, I've drilled a series of holes but the bit wsn't long enough to go through the wall and I had to punch out the concrete and it's not pretty.
  7. Thanks pj71, What size bit are you talking about? I have a concrete drill bit, but it's not long enough to go through the wall.
  8. I'd like advice on how to make a hole in the wall for a 1/2 inch pvc water pipe. It's a kitchen wall, tile on the inside, render outside. Any advice will be appreciated.
  9. Neighbors stay on one number. Is it a concern? Yes, the neighbors don't jump. I'm too afraid to test the breaker or meter. PEA supposed to be here this week. I'll ask them to do it. Thanks Crossy.
  10. Just tried a new digital multimeter, same thing. Should I be concerned?
  11. Neighbors stay on one number. Is it a concern?
  12. When checking the house voltage with my digital multimeter, what does it mean when the numbers keep changing? It won't stay on one number for more than 1 second. ( 205-212-217-205-204-197-198-202 etc. etc.)
  13. Went to PEA today and right to the boss man. He was very friendly and knew all about our situation. He said they are going to install 3 phase on our road. Didn't ask when, but I hope soon. Right now it's 42c and we're relying on our 9k btu Mitsu inverter in the bedroom. The 18k non-inverter in the living room can't handle the low voltage. I turn it on at 210v and it will run for an hour then at 180v it starts blowing warm air. Would an 18k inverter do any better? Just a thought.
