This one is from about 7 yrs ago, I have little recollection of this job but it is headed 'Blown buried supply pyro', this is not my handy work as I don't do domestic boards, what amazes me here is there are only 3 circuits and it looks like there are at least 20 in there given the state of the wiring.

You have to try damn hard to make an empty board look so full.

Have you got the guys number, might see if he can pull the same trick with my wallet.

What's the IP rating of two carrier bags, I don't have my BBB to hand....?

(was originally in a shed which was recently taken down before it fell down apparently - twin and earth running 100 ft up the garden and still live, though on an RCD at least I guess...surprised it hadn't tripped more often)

I have yet to come across a failed double bagging. Heck a good double bagging is probably more water resistant than a standard external plug socket :)

A “friend” left an extension Lead outside that was bagged when he forgot about a set of Christmas lights.

come autumn the rcd caused issues. During the summer, the uv had turned the bag to dust and then the wind and rain destroyed it.
