Rules....No Offensive material... edit if required before posting as this is the public arena.
Anything to do with the trade or in and around it ...H&S pic's welcome.



I've posted this a few times and this is at a mates house following a kitchen refirb several yrs ago. mg_smile:

It's the old question...cleats or saddles?
The answer my friend is blowing in the wind...

Of course, cable ties are always good, especially for mixed media...

Just when I thought jubilee clips were ideal for bonding...
well, this from a restaurant I was in the other night...

Got called to look at moving a DB the other day.
It looks like someone thought they convert a split load board to provide dual RCD by changing the main switch. Lol

I’ve had a lovely day tracing Kev’s top notch wiring... All of them were live.

OMG...that's quite a gallery of awfulness!
Is that a piece of T&E nailed across as a cable clip/restraint?

I mean, we've all seen chocblock with insulating tape before...but BLUE??? Honestly, no fashion sense these Kevs!

It’s the masking tape and crimps that give it some class!
I’ve been in a house today previously owned by an electrician - it’s not much better!

That's not masking tape, its Sellotape...

Opened it up...

"CAUTION: This installation neutral link has wiring to two versions of BS7671." Innovative design, there... charred black on the bottom, modern blue at the top!

Solid neutral links often lead to problems (doesn't help if the terminal cage is partly on the insulation, either). Main switch was completely burnt out (luckily in the "open" position) and made crunching noises as I closed it.
