TV kapot.

Buurman heeft een nieuwe stekker aan zijn tv gezet.



Een klap, rook, en de stroom valt uit.



Na onderzoek: snoer met blauw/bruin/zwarte draden.



En raadt es: de blauwe was randaarde.....



En buurman had gegokt dat de zwarte randaarde was.



Oeps.....



Het zou zo op de tv kunnen in "Buurman en buurman" .....


Translated.

Neighbor has put a new plug on his TV.

A blow, smoke, and the power falls out.

After examination: cord with blue / brown / black wires.

And guesses: the blue wax is the edge .....

And neighbor had gambled that the black ground was.

Over here we know the "Blue" wire as being Zero volts and Bronw wire as being L1 (phase 1).. So its my guess that on your side of the pond, the black wire must be the L2 (phase 2). I don't know exactly how your system is over there but it sounds like all you need to do is re-wire it correctly and replace the fuse. Have a good day. Oops .....

Always smart to use a little ohmmeter first to make sure.

That should not have killed the TV set, just the power cord. Unless ... he then also plugged it into the three-phase outlet for the milking machine out in the barn.
