Hi,

Looking for more advice please. My electrician has spurred off a cable under flooring using what seem to be wago type connectors (push in, no screws). They are not enclosed in a box and the flooring is boarded and will be tiled over when refurbished. Is this acceptable by current regs or not? The floor is in a bathroom but not within any zone, in case that makes a difference.

Thanks
 
That’s my new toolbox sticker…..

Wholly inappropriate for this situation.

My comments about “an easy fix” was more to imply to the OP that it’s not going to be a massive upheaval to sort this.
Not defending the spark in any way, but it might be the case of, he’s ran out of wago boxes, and he’ll sort it next visit….next visit didn’t come quick enough

Do we know if job finished?, circuit energised?
Joiner laid boards before spark returned?

Yes the job is finished. The 'joiner' is me as it's a DIY project and I thought I was doing the sensible thing getting an electrician in for the electrics.

What's up?
It was such an obvious effin joke pal.

Oh, I see the job was complete, by the way.

Crossed wires I think.

I knew it was a joke… my “inappropriate” remark was more what my sign says, rather than you bringing it up.

I really wish the smilie menu still worked… I sometimes forget to add them
