      It also could be energized, if the neutral connection is lost!

          New wire for my RDE3340 Whirlpool electric range
          by wnlewis
          OK. I got the rocker switch figured out thanks to the good advice on this forum.

          Now I need to figure out the correct wire to go to the switch from the broiler element and from the oven element.

          This is a Whirlpool RDE3340 electric range.

          The common wire on the switch appears to have a high temperature insulating material. I am guessing that both the wire to the broiler and the wire to the oven elements also need relatively high temperature insulation. What do I need to look for? The broiler is rated at about 2400 watts.

          Where may I find parts...

          Lenovo Yoga 710 15ISK, 80U00002US battery cable wire broken.
          by emeskay
          We have an Lenovo Yoga 710 15ISK that we use as a secondary laptop. To cut a long story short, around May 2023, while traveling, I connected the laptop into an electrical outlet that was already switched on. Something made a "pfft" sound and the laptop refused to turn on after that. After getting back home, I gave the the laptop for repair to an informal repair person. He replaced the adapter and an internal motherboard part, but after he returned it I noticed that the LCD did not look normal. Essentially, every alternate horizontal line on the screen had gone missing. The laptop was...

          Vintage fan repair, copper wire question
          by technicalspecialist
          I currently have a customer's vintage fan on the work bench to repair.
          It uses an induction motor with 4 poles. One of the poles is open.
          I couldn't find the break so i cut off the original wire.
          I have measured the other poles and the resistance is about 28 ohms per pole and I measured the diameter of the wire with my digital calipers and it is 0.35mm in diameter.

          I need to work out how much 0.35mm diameter enamelled copper wire i need to order for it to be 28 ohms. I have used this calculator and it says i need 160.35 metres.

          The enamelled copper...

          Heater element wire type instead of a fuse when troubleshooting a short circuit DIY
          by sam_sam_sam
          I was Ollie today which is a close out / surplus outlet store I do not go in there to often because you find things that you should not be tempted by but that is a another story

          I saw a small space heater that used a wire type of heater element which I been looking for a while but not really hard mind you but when I saw this I grabbed it I going to go back tomorrow and buy the last one that is like the one I bought today because I need the heater element and the ceramic insulators and more of heat element wire because this one has two different wattage settings one 1300 watts ( tap...

          1070 GPU. DVI port removed, wire in its place, why? Stuck on low clocks too.
          by GlenBrim
          I got this recently as-is. Gigabyte 1070 video card.

          DVI port is removed. I don't know why.
          A wire is soldered across two spots where it looks like the DVI port was. I don't know why.

          I've read of people simply ripping out DVI ports and the rest of the cards still working fine. Never read anything about soldering a wire in there for some reason.

          The card seems to work fine, except it's stuck in low clock speeds. While starting a game or benchmarking, the clocks may momentarily increase to around where they should be, then goes way back down and stays...
