    Are there any autistic electricians here?

    I have often wondered if I have elements of aspergers, and even ADHD. As others have said we probably all have bits of pieces of medical conditions. Whatever condition you have or don't have its really a matter of being able to deal with it and keep it under control, or as suggested seeking...

    Has this consumer unit been installed correctly?

    Thanks for the info on the quickwire boxes I didn't even know they existed, so I have ordered some from superlec who seem to be the cheapest.

    Trust a trader, checkatrade, rated people

    I had a look on their website and it offers a free trial but no where does it say how much it cost after the free trial. In fact I'm not even sure what they do to get you work?

    Cable method for sumerhouse power

    I've lost count of how many times I have seen so called sparks just leaving swa laying on the earth/grass or clipped to wooden fences. I have lost many jobs where I refuse to do that. I would only ever use swa and can't see any benefit to running singles or twin/earth in trunking.

    Electrical Certificate

    If it only requires a minor works as per the regs, then I wouldn't be submitting an EIC. Some of the staff in BC are clueless.

    Would the shed not then require a plasterboard ceiling using that criteria?

    Trust a trader, checkatrade, rated people

    Checkatrade are getting desperate, because since they were bought out by homeserve they have significantly increased prices (by almost double in some cases apparently) and many trades have left them. £84 a month is where they start you at, so you bend over backwards to get good reviews and then...

    SWA CLEATS IN WOODEN GARDEN SHED

    Few sparks haven't used some common sense from time to time regardless of the regs, just as not everyone drives at 30mph in a 30mph zone. I once knew someone that got up to almost 35mph in a 30mph zone, and it played on my mind for weeks after whether I should have reported him to the feds.

    SWA CLEATS IN WOODEN GARDEN SHED

    I better not mention to anyone, that today I used some plastic clips to support twin and earth in a loft on wooden beams.

    SWA CLEATS IN WOODEN GARDEN SHED

    I think all wooden sheds should have sprinkler systems installed just to be on the safe side.

    SWA CLEATS IN WOODEN GARDEN SHED

    We can fix a consumer unit to wood with the rear entry open for cables to enter, and the massive entry hole doesn't have to be sealed, but some people really think you can't use cleats in a wooden shed as it could be a fire risk. Not sure how many firemen would be going inside a burning shed to...

    Certain accents not worth quoting for?

    I thought you understood my point earlier? Seriously you are arguing that after 30 years of experience I am guilty of generalisation and tarring everyone with the same brush. Let us not lose sight of the fact that this is my business where I earn my wage, and if it doesn't make business sense...

    Certain accents not worth quoting for?

    What about posting something reasonably intelligent to counter argue my posts, rather than going to the length of quoting what I've said in each post with no foundation, but a poor attempt at amateur psychology and a reference to Jeremy Kyle, and then concluding your post with "now I'm the silly...

    Certain accents not worth quoting for?

    I don't always understand why people create their threads, but it's their choice if they want to do so, and the choice of forum members if they choose respond or not. I am therefore entitled to respond to comments people make as that's the way forums usually work. If people are short sighted...
