Neither will the board that its all mounted on, should be asbestos.

Are you allowed to screw things to asbestos ? I though it all had to be removed these days ...

Sorry, been on the sauce, I was being facetious.

Of course you can't screw directly to asbestos, the surface should be thoughly scoured first with an abrasive element to key the area.

Will a belt sander do or a file better to achieve a smooth surface ...?

I will be sure to make sure the apprentice is standing below to catch the dust in a pan

Like me you would remember ripping out all those dangerous metal "fuseboxes" to replace with the much safer plastic "fuseboxes"!!!!

Those starting today will be telling their future generations of the times when they started and they were ripping out old dangerous plastic CUs to replace with safer metal CUs as the future generations rip out the metal CUs to replace with plastic in line with the 26th edition amendment 4 following issues raised by the London Fire, and nosey parker brigade

 

[telectrix]

of course, in Scotland, the regs will be different. amendment 5 of the 21st edition will stipulate that Scottish Cus be manufactured from haggis. flame retardent, flexible, and a rodent deterrent.

...and we'll have the new independence tartan colours for the cables

 

[Julie.]

...and we'll have the new independence tartan colours for the cables

With 5 tiers of colour coding rather than the English 3 tiers.

(Or will we move to 5 phase to be better than the English 3 phase?)

 

[telectrix]

...and we'll have the new independence tartan colours for the cables

don't you mean blue and yellow. according to knickerless sturgeon, Scotland are staying in the EU.
