Exactly, this is the point. The first page says don't spray it in your eyes, inhale, ignite, puncture, etc. I have not read the remaining 19 pages. I will not do so. No court would find that any risk

Hi I know exactly what you mean. A number of years ago I had a new 60 x 25 x12 shed installed here and I did all the wiring for 240v power points (30) and 9 3 Phase 415 outlets and all of the lighting

Oh absolutely. And fine woodwork is something I do all the time. But with contractors you keep the good ones close. It works with Pizzie because he knows that I'm technically competent and I know what

And that is fine, your choice. But there are plenty of electricians I will not let near my house, just as there are plenty of mechanics I will not let near my car. Everyone should be allowed to

============================= I know of one brilliant electronics engineer (numerous patents) who drilled through a stud into a live wire while holding an electric drill in his hand in a crawl space.

I can verify that from my search today. I can also verify these EAROMs can "forget" after ten years without rewrite. So they need to be refreshed. But that is done in the calibration sequence and I

Patrick, Thank you for your help. Sorry I wasnt on to answer earlier. but here is what I have found. The 2465 does not have battery backed CMOS memory. Instead, it has EAROM. An ER1400 to be specific.

From a Rohde and Schwarz manual, gotta love it. Note the distinction in probability between DANGER and WARNING. (And no, I did not find the upper bandwidth limit I was looking for) Tags and their

I do occasionally use power tools that are broken, or missing parts... but that's because I know what's missing/broken and compensate for the flaw. (like the time all 3 t-nuts for my unimat failed

Your story brings up an important point – the excessive number of warnings about obvious hazards makes it more likely someone will miss important information that might *not* be obvious. It’s not

I had a similar experience some years ago. I bought a new water heater, and didn't even bother to try reading the manual because it was like a phone book. Three languages and nothing but warnings

Yes, it's probably better to use two wires and not rely on an untrustworthy ground. If you look around that's just what's happening - grounded systems are replaced by class 2 double insulated

This is sad but understandable. People with bad arthritis will do anything if there's a chance it will stop the pain. I'm sure even if there's no pharmacological reason for helping, the placebo effect

Trucked rather than flown has to do with aerosol shipping regulations. One can spend hours googleing this subject and all the regulations. But, maybe we wouldn't need so many pages if people just

Getting pretty far OT, but what hope is there for engineering if our schools/parents/culture/students can't produce people who don't have what you call common sense but which is more like a basic

Yes, Jim, agreed. But, who wants an army of "federales" breathing down their necks (and other parts), like so much "hopeless in-security"... Look at FAA, which is chartered to, both promote AND

Bernd, It looks like you left a sentence off of that well-deserved and well-intended diatribe: ? ? "Obey and enforce all existing laws, rules, and regulations FIRST." Without that, there's less than

The abuses of the industrial revolution had to be stopped by law! Many rules are good, but none have ever been written that some genius won't circumvent with some duct tape and bailing wire. It comes

Dennis and All - Common sense and what I will term legitimate safety warnings are in fact wise and useful. Where we go off the deep end is with such "Required" warnings as not to use your hair dryer

Some very intelligent engineers have died as a result of an unexpected encounter with HV due to no fault of their own. They aren’t here to speak in favor of the 8 pages of warnings that accompanied
