Wondering what your tips or tricks are for working with and safely isolating Mains Voltages in projects? Anything is better than nothing, but no short cuts that could get anyone hurt, please!!
I use:
- Double Heatshrink around connections
- Silicone Gel when required
- Earth WIRES and not solder, cos I don't want it to melt out before the fuse blows!
