Funny Electrical Photo's

[Paul.M]

Here are some that I've come across, thought I would post them up so we can have a laugh


EICR that took two days and they missed this



and this



and this one is just brilliant! This is a sports hall with kids playing football in it every week, and yes they are all LIVE!!!




Internal floodlights were tripping the MCB's so an "electrician" came around and fixed them (see below ffs)





All now fixed, new floodlights on a new shiny RCD DB and metal sockets.

Not quite the standard of the above photos, but it made me laugh.
L/N reversed. Earth connected to back box, just not to the CPC.

More fun while doing an inspection. 3 way switch with none of the switches in use. The only thing this 'light' switch powered was the boiler


​

Now this one really ****ed me off. A colleague had hole sawed through a steel sheet and dragged these wires though. I was testing for sign off and picked it up.
The reason this was so annoying, fault spotted 5pm on Valentines day..........

i know we said we'd take it 'through' the stud but it'll be tacked before they're back!

i know the spreads half filled the boxes but thats the 3rd time you've supposedly cleaned them out

those leds don't seem to be working

of course it won't matter if you mix those 3 cores up just so long as you relabel them at ONE END only

well, the earth's usually in the middle ennit?

local isolation and, just incase you want to plug the radio in while cooking!
