#~#~# Test-Meter Prize Competition #~#~#

Paul.M · Sep 20, 2014

Test-Meter has donated a prize for an Electricians Forum competition. All you have to do is:-

Show us your install

Simple really, just post up a picture of anything that "you have installed" recently and post it up. Test-Meter will judge each picture themselves and choose a winner. The prize is:- Electrical Insulation Tester - Electrical Cable Insulation Test Meter

[ElectriciansForums.net] #~#~# Test-Meter Prize Competition #~#~#

Sorry about the poor quality photo, I've broken the lens on my phone, whoops.

You can post up any electrical install due to the nature of all of our different type of works.

This is worth £100!!! Very generous of Test-Meter to hand over such a prize, thank you. I will leave the competition open for 4 weeks and see if everyone has had the chance to enter.

Have fun and good luck

Busy enough, mate. Trouble is, had to fit a live-in rewire out. Not my sort of thing these days, in fact it never has been...but got to be done..... Hate them, total nightmare, have not done one in a couple of years but still hate them.

How's yerself doing? Plenty on? Seen much of GS?...

I've got loads on mate, should have been starting 2 x new builds (3 bed detached) on Monday but the builders have knocked it back until a week on Wednesday. Taking this time off to re-point my own house (and play golf lol, dont tell Mrs M that bit). Going to have to hire out a 10m tower to do the top of the house but it needs doing before the winter.

As for GS, he is well. Calmed down a lot and getting some good work in. He'll be around at my house next week helping with the re-pointing (although he does not know it yet

). GS owes me a favor or six, time to call them in. We will have that scaffold up in no time and get the job done. Any one that has worked with GS will know what I mean. He doesn't mess about that man.

I somehow feel my work does not compare, probably the most complex and interesting install I have done recently is an extractor fan:thumbs_down:!

Though I do not usually photograph my work (and probably would not want to post it anyway!)
Different worlds:yesnod:

Paul.M · Oct 4, 2014

Most of us can not compare to the "big boy installs" but we can all have a go and it is a fair competition and a bit of fun for us all.

May be Test-Meter can offer another prize or two???? Cough, cough, wink, wink

It is cheeky for me to ask (as they have done so much already) but I'm sure Mr C at Test-Meter can sort something out????

Good to hear, is that. Could have done with him on that rewire, he'd have loved it with some of the grub provided by the lady of the house.
Glad to hear it's going well.
Had some real fun at a local works where I usually do all the work....new owner got some cowboys in...laughable standards.
I'll pm you, when I can, with some details.... I'm sure you'll p*** yourself....I would, if it didn't make me cry.

ps. Say hello to him for us.

Paul.M · Oct 4, 2014

Just been on the phone with GS, passed him your regards.

IPF, if you have a job on that you need a hand with, give me a call and GS maybe able to jump on it with/for you? I&T is his specialty, just watch the bull in the china shop go! GS is fun to work with lol.

As for the comp, post up your pictures.

Wish I'd have got some of those boiler houses, years ago, with dozens of pyro's termed in control panels......but I'd have had to take the photos with me Kodac.

It was fairly recent and for the middle east.

Besoeker · Oct 4, 2014

Another job..........

All manufactured and installed by us.

We used to change the tooling over on a couple of the welding robots about every 3 weeks but could only fault find once it had been installed which meant downtime/lost production.
I built the panel to test/simulate the sensors, solenoid valves etc. prior to the changeover, I designed it so it could also be used as a manual welding fixture if the robot cell was down.
