more like usual plumbers . get in everywhere they should not, like shoving their nasty pipes in the holes that we've spent all day drilling for cables.
 
Just to keep you updated

Did a bit of the grunt work myself eg bending and threading conduit :D

Sparks are coming in end of this week or start of next to finish up

It is perfectly acceptable for the armour of a swa cable and metal containment such as steel conduit and trunking to be used as an earth providing its continuity is satisfactory. The swa cable should be fitted with "banjos" though.

Im guessing when they installed the Crabtree board which was probably a replacement for an actual metal DB they somehow neglected to connect the conduits to the MET of the consumer unit

Nice neat bit of conduit in the middle pic there very impressive in the bottom pic did you flare the end and do an internal thread to accept the bush or was it a prefab bend ?

Pre fab bend tried bending it but after tapping the bend took up too much length (not tight enough)

Rather than bothering with the conduit bend, would it have been neater by using a coupler and a couple brass bushed coming out of the botomof the switch into the top of the socket outlet?

True but thought it was abit tight to the socket
