Re: Bodges
My day job is repair engineer at a calibration lab. Electricians come up with several novel ways of bodging their equipment. A bit of solid copper wire across the fuse on (expensive) multifunction testers is a favourite which inevitably leads to a trail of mass destruction of lots of components which are usually SMT. Still, I’ve learned the usual paths of failure and can get them back working most of the time but if the fuse blows there’s a reason for it...
And these are “qualified” tradespeople working in people’s houses who should know better so who knows the quality of their work?
