immersion wiring

sohappy

Sisters immersion is only heating the very top of the tank, Im no spark but is this wiring incorrect? Should the neutral be the one going through the stat and common to both elements?

Yup

Doom

That part of the element maybe blown or the switch maybe faulty hard to know with out testing it...

yes neutral is wired to stat

is that an old heater? I think some may
have had brown neutral on the flex

is there an rcd on the circuit? you might need to get the immersion tested

yes I think I remember the brown neutral
that may be an old one
maybe no rcd ,and heater gone

the brown and black vary too on different models
I just go by the multimeter

Mine is 1989 vintage and still working, neutral is brown, sink (live) is blue and bath (live) is black.
