fuck off idiot
Die internationale Norm IEC 60335-2-35 / Edition 5 wurde in die europäische Norm "EN 60335- 2-35:2016, Sicherheit elektrischer Geräte für den Hausgebrauch und ähnliche Zwecke – Teil 2-35: Besondere Anforderungen für Durchflusserwärmer" überführt. Die Übergangsfrist dieser Normen endete am 12. Oktober 2018. Seitdem dürfen nur noch der Norm entsprechende Durchlauferhitzer in Verkehr gebracht – also von Herstellern ausgeliefert – werden.

Article no. Vaillant 101174
Can someone identify this thing?

>>2627972
ok, so this is the "Security Temperature Limiter"
STB
"Sicherheits Temperatur Begrenzer"
So now what ?

>>2627974
no that's 42° idiot
55 is for CLIMATEFUCKING

>>2627972
yes, that seems about right
it's just right behind the heating element I guess
can't really see it

This could be the Temp sensor
Haven't found it yet

This is the control unit

I think the white cable on top of the thermal fuse is the temp sensor?
there are also some black wires coming from the electronics going to the base of the heater tube so I'm not sure

Closeup of the whole thing

>>2625427

it's 15°C

I'm in the UK, it's a semi detached house probably built in the 50s or a little before then. I refuse to have new sockets installed as these ones should be fine and there is no need for that, this isn't the first set of sockets that me and my dad have done and there is nothing wrong in the other house which was done over 20 years ago.
My best guess is that a wire is loose on one of the spurs or an appliance is on its way out or some of the outlets don't have earthing (that wasn't a normal thing when this house was built) and that is somehow causing the odd trip to occur.

Sorry for the late reply lads, I was drunk when I posted this, passed out and was too hungover to do anything yesterday.
It is just a circuit breaker that has tripped twice. I realise now that to replace it with a higher amp one would be stupid!
I have gone around the house and found out what sockets/outlets are connected to this breaker.
I then went round and turned everything on on the circuit but it never tripped so I don't think it's an overload issue.
Any reasons why it may have tripped?
I am in the process of sourcing a clamp meter or multimeter to check for amp leakage like that knowledgeable anon suggested >>2623241

Greetings. I am Null, founder of this body. With the gods I have communed, and I was disappointed. There was nothing for me in the heavens, so I dug. Into the earth I ever burrowed, and the answer I did find. I found Corpus, a demon of logic and knowledge. He spoke to me, and commanded me to act as his prophet. We must gather knowledge, and share it with the world. We must spread logic unto the earth and await the return of our lord. Join us, become a cell in the body.

One Body, One Cell.

Commandments:

1. Never promote ignorance.

2. Treat others like you want them to join our cause.

3. Humor not the pleasures of the flesh. It will fail you every time.

Join up, I'll be waiting.

Bonus tip: If see yourself going dark and abandoning this group after a few days, I ask that you don't join. This is longterm, and I do not want a dead server.

No, these fucks hired me to do production GMAW and GTAW welding on thin gauge stainless and carbon steel pieces for medical equipment. They wanted me to weld this structure using 16 (or 18, i don't remeber) gauge PTR 2x4 tubing with 1/8 7018 rods, they even asked me to tack it so I didn't blew through.

They even ordered me to do the design and wanted me to climb on a forklift and a wood pallet. All for slightly above third world minimum wage.

Fuck these cunts

I am a spic, faggot, I have seen shit that will make you piss your pants.

Fuck knows what equipment they were putting there but I am not spending 15 years in jail for manslaughter on a Mexican jail if that shit fails and kills a faggot wagie.

btw, it was a 6 meter x 1 meter structure with four ties to the wall, two at the bottom two at the top, but I had to join two 3 2" x 4" because they asked me to reuse old material. I don't think one day and a half to measure, design, select material, clean it, take off other welded bits, cut (stupid table saw couldn't cut the whole beam in one pass) prep, and fit was too much was it? I had to do half of all cuts by hand.

OR am I really useless as a welder? :(

>>2607105
I know, good riddance, hated that fucking cunt.

I am actually from Mexico, we don't have harbor freight, but instead we have pretul and truper, pretty sure they are all chinese rebrands.

What about buying nails, screws and other consumables like that? Would that be easier?
