  1. Maybe you should check your electrical wiring also. Especially if you had some electrical modification works done by outside parties. If electrical wiring is the problem u can run another electrical line to the oven and seal off the old one. Original HDB/Developer works are inspected to a proper standard. Outside "electricians" standard is very very low. Most use twisting and black tape which loosen after a few years especially when running high power devices. For your own safety, have someone knowledgeable monitor the electrical works and do not accept quick-fixes like: -raising the detection current at the ELCB -disabling the neutral wire
  2. Selling this brand new with box EIKOU digital health monitor / bathroom weighing scale. The digital readout is removable and can be put at a convenient location such as table or wall. Especially useful for elderly so they don't have to bend down to see their weight readout. On top of weight measurement, up to 12 height/gender/activity level profiles can be set for all your family members to more accurately detect body fat and hydration levels. Outside selling price is $99, I'm selling mine for $39 only with batteries included! Collection at Punggol MRT please!

  3. Hi everybody, we learnt a lot from others' reno t-blogs on this forum and therefore we'd like to contribute to this information with our very own t-blog! On March 2014, we started our reno journey searching around for IDs and contractors. The flat, a typical 4-room flat in punggol. Our plan is to make an open concept kitchen that drives the feeling of spaciousness but yet with ample working space Stay tuned...
  4. On further inspection I am shocked to find that some of my 6 wire power points (2xLive, 2xNeutral 2xEarth for higher current loading) were converted to 3 wires using the twist and tape method... \
  5. If safety is a concern, why don't u consider shower curtains? A broken piece of acrylic can be very sharp as well
  6. Thanks for the advice Pelect. Anyway I heard that the transparent screw terminals are not approved for joining mains supplies. Took a walk in sim lim tower and I realised that some of the wire nuts do not have a metal insert and I don't think it's going to hold up well. I did some studies and found that if you must make a joint, it should be either soldered brazed or crimped. Otherwise it's got to be accessible in case it loosens etc. As for my case, I got my electrician to use insulated cable lugs aka crimp, but I had severe doubts about his technique and tool. He was also not very enthusiastic about revealing how many more such joints are there in the entire wiring loom. I have decided to suspend all my renovation work due to the electrical issues. Guys please monitor your electrical works carefully. This is becoming a nightmare. Any suggestions?
  7. Hi everybody, my electrician just finished some of the works and I realised all the wires and joined by twisting the copper strands and then covered by black tape. Is this standard practice or safe for long term use? Any advice is appreciated thanks!
