lost the neutral ?
Doubt it - it goes up to 400V when that happens.

UK grid is also playing silly buggers with frequency - the lack of inertia in all the renewables is making the frequency dance all over the show. They've breached operational limits on both sides multiple times per day - but not statutory limits.

Seems I got my battery just in time :p
 
a property i manage lost the neutral - it blew all the tenants fridges tv's microwaves ETC ETC
It's a frightening thing to physically witness happening. Things start popping and parts (normally Electrolytic caps) start exploding inside equipment like amps etc. You don't know what's gonna happen next and you can't get to mains isolation switch quickly enough or in time to stop further damage. Happened to me once 🤬🤬
 
fokkers came last night and took all the tec screws out our electric fence post ( the last post ) and tied it up with wire

im sure they were planning on coming back tonight . bought new longer tec screws and hammered them in ( into wood gumpoles ) . put chains around the post . getting a welder to spot weld the tec screws heads so they cant be unscrewed
