Revision as of 01:54, 16 June 2007

The advice to "wire across the built-in stat and add an external stat strapped to the tank" seems extremely iffy and completely contrary to current regs requiring a manually-resettable over-temperature cutout to be incorporated into the stat.

I think it would be good for an article on immersion heaters to reference this regulation.

Flexible Cable

The bit about burning smell etc, talks of checking the flexible cable and that has a link to the "Cables" article.... which only discusses wiring cables, not high temperature insulated flexes.

Sounds like we need a "Flex" article.
