    When I worked for my previous electrical company back in 2015 in which they were not certified to any scheme and they didn’t have any real college qualifications as in 16th or 17th edition, they did not have any electrical qualifications at all. However, they were the most recommended...

    Large building shut down

    just looked at a job 800 circuits so it is a bit building. They regularly have maintenance and shut downs on the LV equipment. Would it ever been acceptable to limitate the LV equipment if a shut down wanted to be avoided by the client?
