Aren't they crap for installing and who the hell designs them, obviously they have never installed them! Makes me laugh when it says in the instructions to wrap chocolate block connector in insulation tape ( not supplied)

Two things that'll send a shiver down my spine when the customer produces the light fittings they've bought: "Ikea", or "Specially made in China for [insert name of shed here]"

IKEA are an absolute piece of s#%^ too, especially the pendant lights they sell that dont come with a ceiling hook!

and since when has a 3 plate wiring of a light been a ring?

i''l take a pic of the one on a job i'm doing at the mo. the donkey who wired it has taken both the 3 cores for 2 way to the fitting, then another cowboy has fitted a spot bar with only S/L, N, and E. there's 5 bloody cables in there.

Boy, are you bang on! I had the first of this type last week, and the instructions were missing. My "bodge" was probably better than they had intended. What absolute cack.
