Default JUICEY BRUCEY ASKS, "How does a thermocouple have enough power to operate a gas valve?"

Its no good arguing with the Kernel, he is a troll and a comedian, but not
really interested in any discussion about facts.

On older boilers (furnaces if you're American), when the heating
isn't actually running (eg. the thermostat says the house is warm
enough), there's no power to the boiler, so how does the pilot light
valve stay open with the tiny voltage (40mV?) and current from the
thermocouple?


The basic problem with english engineering is that it hasn't advanced
much beyond the 1500s. We superior Americans, however, employ the use
of electronic ignitors.

As do we with new boilers. But our stuff must last longer because a
lot of folk still have one with a pilot light, the only ones that don't
are the morons that thought they should spend £1000 to get a boiler
that will save them £50 a year on gas. So you make a profit in 20
years time, why bother? My boiler is at least 25 years old and I've
only ever replaced the thermocouple for £7. It could be newer fancier
boilers have more to go wrong, I've heard of a modern boiler lasting
only 7 years!!

If you don't know what that is, see one of my recent poasts concerning
the pigtailing of neutral and ground circuits.

What has pigtailing to do with electronic igniters?

You'd need an electrician's license to even comprehend what I would tell
you about that.


Licenses are for pussies. I just prefer to get on with the job.

IF I ever hire anyone (and usually I do all my own work), I purposefully
avoid anyone with any certifications, it just means they charge more and
are more fussy and won't do the work the way I want it.


Colon Burke is the idiot who said the top pin of a 3-pin plug was for
neutral.
