    Poor fault finding- Faulty lighting circuit- Pay or not?

    You mention an initial problem with the hallway lights switching. How long had it been faulty? Had it ever been correct? Too many questions to be making a decision on a forum. Though, if it was agreed to repair the fault, I would say an explanation is required, at least.

    Should outside earthing wire be covered?

    You're not far off but it's about fault condition. The earthing system is a safeguard which, if not connected correctly could become live if there is a fault. If the fault is diverted, as you say, with no connection to earth, the cable would become live.

    Should outside earthing wire be covered?

    Pvc covered so that's not a problem, although it could do with some protection externally. It's just whether the system operates and the spark should have done tests to ensure that. Fact is it's just totally haphazard but could be the norm. I wouldn't rate any main earth (earthing rod)...

    Adult apprentice wages

    I don't know what it is here. I would think you'd have to stand and barter, dependant on your experience. Thinking about it, why should an adult earn more than a normal apprentice, if they're of the same standard?

    Should outside earthing wire be covered?

    Is that how he's left it, the finished article? I don't know about bonding or work standards in the Spanish outback, though.

    Light switch swap please help

    That's why giving advice in such a situation just doesn't make sense to me. Simple enough job for someone with the correct knowledge. If not, goodness knows. Get it done properly.

    Direct wet contact might make 'em jump a bit. I wonder if a 30mA device would be enough to save 'em? I've seen and heard of a few different animals come to electrical grief in the past......but never a puddy cat.

    Cycles per second meter

    I know it's a BS plug top but I'm wondering where 'SE' is, exactly. Whatever, I don't like all this piddling about with mains voltage.

    Street Lights. Can I change bulb to different type?

    All it needs is the existing lampholder replacing with a suitable new E27 lamp holder connected directly to the incoming cable, replacing/ bypassing the existing discharge gear. Advise someone with experience, as previously explained.

    May be, but can't see any sign of braiding on the photo, It was YY in the foundry. Looking closer, I think you're right.
