The package arrived on time. The item is a birthday present so he hasn't unboxed it yet. I'll leave another review when he does. Bound to like it as he asked for that specific tester.

I am a typical 65 year old retired accountant... No knowledge of fuses let alone fuseboard circuit breakers. My electrician was working in Essex and I needed work done urgently so offered to get parts. He told 16 amp and 2 6 amp for le grande.... But your man told me part nos to order... Made whole process easy and me as customer feeling 100% satisfied with service.

A store is only as good as its manager and staff.
Time and time again my local branch go above and beyond to source parts I need for last minute emergency works, they are second to none and I couldn't do my job without the back up they supply. Any store is only as good as its staff and I'm glad I got these guys.
