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 might be my eyes, but is there a bit of thermal damage there?

 

[Dustydazzler]

Is it it a spli concentric cable...?

looke like a standard red tail & bunched 2.5 copper singles to me

 

[richy3333]

Just needs a bit of work to tidy up?

In that picture its quite clear its a split concentric feed rather than a big bunch of singles.

I have resorted to using a bunch of 2.5 singles as an emergency measure once in the past, it was all I could do at the time to get a pub through the evening before fixing it the next day.

A worthwhile cause I feel. Should be covered on the regs.

Periodic in local restaurant, guy payed 5k for this shop refit, left all the old 1200 x600 fittings above false ceiling still connected but tubes removed.

 

[Dustydazzler]

Blimey that’s rough , even by shop fitter standards...

Think of the profit you could make by working to those standards!

Yes it got worse there was 415 volts at the Emergency lighting, when they connected the 12 gang light switch up they got there wires crossed sw/perm.

UFH system, heated towel rail and shaver socket all spurred off the ring main via a nice taped joint hidden in the lath & Plaster wall.

Never ceases to amaze me why people wrap an unenclosed block connector with insulation tape, like it makes a difference.

What prize did you win for finding it?

Does insulating tape not count as insulation then?

Nice tape joint found yesterday when on an emergency call for no lights working.
