Pffff I could do a loft opening in about 10 seconds just depends on how fast you misplace your footing on a joist in the loft and the time it takes your leg to exit the wood lathe and plaster ceiling.

Bet you couldn't trim it out and cut / fit the cover in that time though

No 10 minutes later I made a second opening so gave up tidied up and went home, this was my Mums house when I clearing the loft out, why do old people collect 30 year old rubbish and leave dumped in the loft rotting away grrrrrrr

Yes, I remember the stupid rate sheets that we were given.

Remember talking to one of the chippies on site with us, they were given 20 minutes to cut, fit & trim a loft opening including clearing up.

Worked on a Spec build block of flats, Chippies cutting letter box openings in a hardwood door with a chain saw, who said they weren't wood butchers?

In the level three C&G book circular terminals do not require the cable or copper to be bent over based on the premise that the copper will naturally settle under the screw...Don't shoot the messenger!

Whats a circular terminal?

Is it the mush room head one as when you tighten the it, it drags the cable around?

My kids where at Uni I don't think they know how a broom works, I had bruised nuts and spoke in a high pitched vice for a while.

Thought giving teenagers a broom was classed as child cruelty nowadays

If you had your nuts in a vice, you would have a high pitched voice

Keep your sexual preferences to yourself as you may get some of the older members overtly exited.

terminal

I'll post a pic when I get home unless you have a plug top you can look at where you push the copper in and careful observation will reveal that the hole you push the cable into and screw down on to has a circular shape akin to a cylindrical shape. You have to look carefully at where you push the cable in at the point of termination of the cable. You will see that the hole is circular or round if you prefer? I hope that is of some assistance in identifying what The book referred to. Any questions will be answered in a forthcoming seminar on the subject, attendance fees are very reasonable.

We thought you were referring to the old MK style plugs, with the top hat type terminal screw.

Be better if he was not pushing the screwdriver into the palm of his hand, it just takes one slip and then off to A&E
