    The "Like" button

    Hi Guys Don't know if this has been talked about before, so apologies if it has. Was wondering if it was possible to have more than just a "like" button as sometimes it just does not seem to do justice to some of the comments. Could we have a "Brilliant" button? Or maybe a "Laughed out loud"...

    industrial roller shutter door.

    A friend of mine has a 3phase roller door. Under normal circumstances you press the up button and it opens and continues to go up untill the limiter switch kicks in. When it comes down you have to press and hold the down button. I guess this is for safety reasons. The up button has stopped...

    If an RCD passes the manual push button test, is this any indication that it will disconnect in the required time under actual fault conditions?
