Discuss Exposed copper wire under the floorboards after rewire in the UK Electrical Forum area at ElectriciansForums.net
A close up if the bottom of the consumer unit would also be interesting, to see what sort of a gland or grommet they have used - hopefully it is not cables resting on the sharp edge of the metal.That trunking at the top of the consumer unit is rough.
Is it just me or does that trunking have a bit of a lean to it ?
I would even go as far to question if that trunking is even bothered to be screwed to the wallI would say a spirit level has never been near them!
Worth noting that even if you post a very good standard of work on this forum its going to get some criticism.
That said, that doesn't look like a very good standard of work at all from any of the photo's so far, it'll be interesting to see what actions, if any, the scheme takes.
What makes it worse is the OP hired an 'electrician' to do the re-wire and this is the dogs breakfast they got.
I could understand the mess if they hired a builder or plumber to do the re-wire but not from a trained electrician.
This industry especially the domestic sector has gone to the dogs and the rough work I see on a regular basis done by so called cps sparks is terrifying.
I even saw a bypassed rcd the other day done by a so called cps sparks. This has to be an all time low for the industry.
I have tried reporting these imposters to the scams in the past but nothing ever happens and the homeowner just ends up paying me or someone else to re-do the work.
Shame
That was also my though. If the exposed joints are typical of the "workmanship" then a lack of proper cable protection/support is not going to surprise meA close up if the bottom of the consumer unit would also be interesting, to see what sort of a gland or grommet they have used - hopefully it is not cables resting on the sharp edge of the metal.
