He also attempts to build a AFFD tester which electrically tests rather than relying upon the mechanical action of the test button on the device itself.

    I think with the inbuilt inertia attached to the AFDD design, these devices are only suitable at the intake to protect against loose supply connections. In which case the DNOs should then be responsible for the installation and maintenance .

    The youtube article was excellent and strangely enough quite clear although I think the presenter must have taken too much amphetamine sulphate.
