Hello all,
I purchsed a socket multiplier with built in spike guard from Big Bazaar yesterday for connecting LCD TV, DVD player, 2TB HDD and STB.
When connected, the diagnostic LEDs indicated reveresed Neutral and Earth at TV socket. Checked the wiriing inside and found it to be normal.
The diagnostics are indicating different faults at different plug points.
Dared to hook tv on as earlier I was playing the TV w/o spike guard from the same plug point.
Now I realized that there were bands passing from top to bottom ilke a wave though subtle.
When I connected it as usual i.e. without spike guard this problem vanished.
I am left wondering if the spike guard itself is faulty or if similar thing happens due to some sort of incompatibility.
Request you guys to throw some light on.
Rgds.
