Pictures of simple jobs done properly.

Dave OCD · Sep 2, 2017

I was thinking as per thread title why don't we post up some pictures of how we do the simple common things, would be interesting to get different views and also show the people new to the trade how things ought to be. I'll start off with a simple 3 plate ceiling rose pendant that my son did yesterday, I think it's pretty good.

Doesn't get much simpler than this, I do hope spurring off of a ring counts as properly. The bricks were rock hard.

This picture is a central heating system i did on a 4 storey house. Looking back i think i could have been neater.

It's neat enough, but the lack of labelling is going to make anyone who works on it in the future curse you to hell and back.

Fear not! There is a schematic drawing laminated and hung next to the wiring centre

Along with labelling the terminals and/or numbering of the cores hopefully?

You should use these in future. Makes the job easier for everyone else.

Here's a couple more pictures of very simple things, a double socket and 1 gang switch with supply looped through it, note gratuitous use of 3mm cpc sleeving which I'm using up before Westward 10 gets it banned.

I see you mark the floor as well, we used to do it both sides of the stud as got fed up of chippy with nail gun firing nail in directly below socket.

Yeah I've always done that Anthony, luckily the bloke who built this house is really conscientious, but that's becoming a rarity these days !

IIRC, the MCB supply was controlled from the master panel, so that these 2 motors were not supplied until other equipment kicked in,
