I’d begin by turning the main switch off and going home!

Sod that i wouldn't touch it, go home first let someone else get their fingers near it

Been asked to put this right, not sure if you can see one of the cables is bent tight over the capping, this was done by a time served electrician a couple of years ago before he retired. Had a quick look at the bonding did not take long as there is none nothing on the cold mains or the oil line. No RCD, no linked main switch, no supplementary, just a 6mm main earth from the PME cutout.

Did the person whose house that is, retire him?
I can't get my head around that paneling, dado/picture rail/coving configuration. What's occurring there?

New kitchen cupboard in the way?

The panel is the side of a 300 larder unit so thats a cornice on the top, the sparky has chopped the caping and split the ring to power the boiler which is the other side of the larder unit and the fridge under the double socket, the t&e goes across the wall horizontally into a 20amp junction box no clips just hangs over the boiler, looks rough.

No mate, apparently it was a mobern kitchen so must have been fitted before they went bust in 2011.

Virtual pint to whomsoever can pick ALL the bones out of this beauty!!

Apparently bathroom fitter never finished the job so DIYer fitted a fan in loft but couldn't get it to work.

Had a quick look over it but need to cut into the ceiling in loft to see where they've junctioned in. Bathroom ceiling been dropped and JB (probably rats nest of twisted cables and tape) is now
inaccessible.

And you've guessed no cert.

[Wilko]

So, I arrive at terrace to fix some crook bathroom lights, 6 installed and 1 still works. Waste not, want not, I guess. Owner says new CU been fitted, goan show us I say.

Well, not the worst sight I've seen in an electrics cupboard. Then I flip the lid up and now I'm thinking the Last Fellow might've had a few sneaky sips while he worked .

Probably just showing it considering that's the whole point of this thread
