Faults in the cord of the appliance

Finding fault in the cord of the appliance. If included in the network appliance is not working, you should check whether the voltage at the outlet. To do this you must include this outlet on the appliance (hair dryer, coffee grinder, table lamp, etc.) or test lamp. If the socket is not faulty, you should check the appliance cord, together with his contacts. Verification is performed as follows: plug is inserted into the socket, and at the other end to the terminals on terminal block appliance connect a test lamp. If the lamp is not lit, then the cord is faulty. Most often, the fault string is at the junction of its ends with a plug and a place I plug in the appliance, that is, in places of greatest mechanical stress. Sometimes it is difficult to establish the place of cord breakage. In order not to cut wire in different places, connect it via an electrical iron or tiles, and then turn on the radio in the mid range, but did not adjust to a particular station, and on the free site. Take the cord in his hands and fingers from beginning to end. When touched to the point of breakage detector hear a cracking sound. Wire is not damaged. To clean the conductivity of the plastic insulation, without damaging the wire, bend it and gently push the edge of a knife to their exclusion. Layer it gets going before the blade touches the metal. After this isolation can be easily removed with pliers. Conductivity can be extended. In a remote place (in the junction box, outlet or switch) in the electrical wire, it happens, broken-off lived. Increase the wire in this case, the usual twisting impossible because of his lack of length. Apply in this case is another option. On the nail of the same diameter as that of the wires needed to navit 6.5 turns of the same wire without insulation, over his bare core wire and lightly squeezed with pliers, wrap tightly with electrical tape. Electrical tape will be kept secure. Imposing PVC insulating tape on the connection of electrical wires, progladte latest round of hot soldering iron. Turns of tape alloys, reliability and durability of the connection will increase. Reliable contact. Overheated coil electric heaters are usually rolled into the place of the cliff. However, due to bad contact again she fails. To avoid this, you burned the ends of the spiral well cleaned of scale, the interval between them to insert the copper wire with a diameter of 1-2 mm and then to twist and crimp with pliers. Spiral serve longer. If the light poorly kept. It happens that the cartridge flashlight bulb is too loose thread and the bulb keeps it badly. To address this shortcoming can wrap the bulb socket strip of aluminum foil. Fast and reliable contact. Connect the wires flat batteries quickly easiest using paperclips. Such a connection is more reliable than the wound on the output wires.
