[@captainbobo]

Thanks for the video @thepunggolhandyman . Can I check with you if the switch makes light crackling sounds and the LED buzzes intermittently on and off when the switch is in the “on” position. Would it be a problem with the switch (I need to buy a new switch) or just a connection issue (I can crack open the switch and tighten up the various screws in the hope it works?)

[@ThePunggolHandyMan]

Hi! Thnks for reaching out! This means that you have arcing inside the switch a it is not engaging or disengaging properly. The spark is a heat source which may cause the housing to melt. Do change the switch as soon as you can. They are quite inexpensive and not worth repairing. Be safe!

[@captainbobo]

@@ThePunggolHandyMan Thanks for the reply! It was definitely and arcing issue. The live wire had melted down the contact area behind the switch. Only issue is that the screw thread for the switch seems to have been worn out. So the whole switch is being held together by one side screw. Although not the best solution but would this be safe enough for constant daily operation?

[@ThePunggolHandyMan]

I wouldn’t advise it. I have not had the opportunity to come up with a proper socket fix video yet, however you can use kneadable epoxy to reconstruct the area needed to be screwed in.

[@dqnizing]

Hi there! I am currently using the 3 pin plug (which I know is not safe to do so) for my water heater. Is this as simple as changing the switch to this double pole switch and we are good to go?

[@ThePunggolHandyMan]

Ultimately a water heater should be wired to its own circuit breaker which would isolate the circuit if a fault develops in the heater. The idea is to shut off the supply. Of course a dual pole switch is safer than a 3 pin plug.

[@DarkPa1adin]

Hi. Thanks for this tutorial. My new switch replacement (same brand, newer model) has Line/Load instead of In/Out. May I know whether Line is In and Load is Out or the other way around? Thanks

[@kelvinng1212]

Hi. I had just brought a smart water heater switch (glass touch panel type) to replace my current water heater switch. Realize that for the new switch, there is only connection points for Load, L and 2 N points. And there is no point to connect my earth wires. For the neutral wires, must I identify which incoming neutral wire goes to which of the 2 N points on the switch? Since there is no connection for for the earth wires, where should I connect the earth wires to?

[@ThePunggolHandyMan]

In this instance it should be a dual pole switch usually L1 is for incoming (live) and L2 (load) same with the neutral. For the earth wires the manufacturer deems that it is not necessary for the switch to be earthed, hence you should join all the earth together via a connector or solder and heat shrink. I won't recommend twisting and black tape.

[@bernardtan7068]

Hi, thanks for the wonderful video. I have a question....is there a fuse inside the 20A DP switch? If yes, what is the fuse rating. If no, why not as our common appliance plug has a 13A fuse.

[@ThePunggolHandyMan]

Hi there is no fuse in the dp switch. However what it does is disconnects the appliance 100% from your circuit by disconnecting live and neutral. Hence dual pole. A regular 13a switch is single pole as it only disconnects the live wire from the appliance. Hence if neutral is energised, there is a chance that you still might get a shock if there is a fault in the appliance which shorts the case to the neutral line.

[@bernardtan7068]

@@ThePunggolHandyMan Thanks for your prompt reply. It is very clear. I got another question but now related to oven replacement. My old oven is connected to a 20A DP switch. While sourcing for new oven, some manufacturer specified upfront that it has to be installed with a 16A fuse and they will not provide us with plug. So I am puzzled that if I connect directly to my 20A DP switch as my old oven does, how should I incorporate the 16A fuse as per the manufacturer specification?

[@ThePunggolHandyMan]

@@bernardtan7068 the fuses are usually located in the plug heads. Not sockets. In saying that, if a circuit specifies 20a or 13a that is what the circuit breakers are designed to trip off in the event of a surge.

Hi TPH, is having a heater switch (in the kitchen) indicate that the house already has neutral wire wired?

[@chtoh3917]

What would have caused my live wire to heater to melt and the plastic to start melting?

This is normal? Can I do anything to make it so that I can turn on and off both water heater switches. TQ

[@ThePunggolHandyMan]

Usually each switch corresponds to a power outlet near the ceiling of each toilet. Turning either one on will activate the respective outlet and the heater attached to the outlet. If your heater is in the master, and supplies both common and master toilets then the heater is connected to the master room swith. In short, to connect both switches to become a 2 way switch requires quite extensive rewiring of the walls which should be done by an electrician

When you are working on electricity, your CB SHOULD BE OFF. The circuit tripped to save your husband from hurting himself!
