Infra red heater

[Robotstar5]

Some one bought one in to have the lamp changed, I was more concerned about the cable....



Even the brass tips on the plug were worn round, I put some arctic blue cable and a new plug on, even put it on the PAT tester (passed).

Apparently used for SMART repairs not sure how smart the owner is though

nice cable there, you should have left it and survival of the fittest would have kicked in soon enough!!

Chop the cable and put a new one on, job done.

Theres a fire risk if ever i saw one

Should see the state of some of ours. Our red rad eats a 32amp plug once a month and makes the 4mm cable like jelly.

When I used to repair home computers incorrectly fitted plugs were more common than correctly fitted ones. Some were really lethal.
