spark electrode leads

[desrob]

hows does one check on a worcester junior 28i what is the resistance on these ?

 

[Billy Bob Bob]

you dont look for resistance you check for continuity

 

[gaspastemania]

How easy is it to learn the electrical workings with boilers can you self teach through the MI'S and cock ups??

 

[desrob]

you dont look for resistance you check for continuity

no you don.t try it mate, you wont get continuity

 

[Billy Bob Bob]

no you don.t try it mate, you wont get continuity

you have a broken lead then,you have just told me you cant check for continuity on a electrode lead????? the only resistance test you can do is insulation resistance but why bother a frayed lead would be obvious

hows does one check on a worcester junior 28i what is the resistance on these ?

21k ohms

 

[Billy Bob Bob]

21k ohms

what you actually test for this?

 

[desrob]

21k ohms

thanks mike

 

[desrob]

what you actually test for this?

as you would for continuity

 

[mikegas]

i went on the worcester course a while back and he said you have to test the resistance of the leads not continuity, value is from a booklet they give out

 

[Billy Bob Bob]

i have never checked resistance just continuity never had a faulty lead as apposed to a faulty board and got the fault wrong

you would never ever get continuity on electrode leads on the worcester,your mistaken,strip the lead out and try and get continuity,you wont you will a resistance value of 21ohms thanks to mike gas

 

[Billy Bob Bob]

what worcester?

 

[mikegas]

you would never ever get continuity on electrode leads on the worcester,your mistaken,

if your not getting continuity though wouldn't that mean your not going to get a resistance reading?

 

[Billy Bob Bob]

i will leave you gents work it out for yourselves i will carry on regardless its worked well for all the time i have been at it just dont confuse electrode lead resistance with electrode resistance and remember mi,s can have spelling mistakes and inaccuracys as well
