[QUOTE="apprentice87, post: 490513, member: 13534"] I think it is... Still bypassed, will get a new one though.. In the past i have had to replace loads of immersion elements. When i took them out, they would be all split open along much of their length with the internal heater wire in full contact with the water. I presume the only reason i am here typing this is the low conductivity of clean water and equipotentional bonding.. Now as soon as the element does anything the RCD trips straight off.. john..
