Getting toast out with a knife or fork, Dangerous?

Amperage? Is that an American word? 18 months of Electrical training and I havent encountered it once, called it ampage or just generally "current"

hehe just reminded me, my gf calls "Fuses" - "Amps" :p

I`m forever on her case about it, but she insists that everyone, including the hardware shops know what she means / call them the same...

I'm just like... no, they know what you mean, but they don't call them that too :)

not sure if its just an american slang..but its nothing really unknown. could be how one once to referance it...amp,ampere,ampacity. I've maintained my Union Journeyman Electrical License for over 20 years and still hear term amperage when doing walk-thurs in Nuclear Plants and Power Plants.

Everyone seems to think it's the toasters fault. Has nothing to do with the toaster, it's the bread.

Some bread is thicker than others, sometimes the bread has a bend in it, etc. etc.

Well sometimes the piece of bread is also too small and people don't realize till it's done and it's no where near the top or it slipped down the grate at the bottom, or it just simply got stuck. Either way, it was the bread or human error that did it, not the toaster.

And about getting shocked, personally I highly doubt you'll get a shock from it whether it's on or off.

Then 18 months of electrical training has been a waste of your time.

And please, don't go to anyone's house to fix "electrical issues"

    • Tor Browser 15.0.17 by Razvan Serea Protect your privacy. Defend yourself against network surveillance and traffic analysis. Tor is a network of virtual tunnels that allows people and groups to improve their privacy and security on the Internet. The Tor software protects you by bouncing your communications around a distributed network of relays run by volunteers all around the world: it prevents somebody from watching your Internet connection and learning what sites you visit, it prevents the sites you visit from learning your physical location, and it lets you access sites which are blocked. The Tor Browser Bundle lets you use Tor on Windows, Mac OS X, or Linux without needing to install any software. It can run off a USB flash drive, comes with a pre-configured web browser to protect your anonymity, and is self-contained.
