Just wired up a socket in my kitchen, don't worry I am part p qualified and 17th edition qualified,when I plug the kettle in the toaster blows the fuse box, I only have some silver foil and no fuse wire, will that be okay until I get to screwfix in the morning? or will I have to stick a 6" nail across it as I hear silver foil can be dangerous? thanks for your help fellow electricians, oh one last question do I need to Bond the kitchen sink even though it is plastic? I have looked in my on site guide and it doesn't mention anything and I need to get this right as I have a yearly inspection from Napit in 2 weeks time and want to show off this job to the inspector.
 
just read the original post and don't see a problem just charge the fuse box the going rate every time the toaster blows it, shouldn't take long to pay for the next course the schemes dream up.

as for the sink just drill a hole in it and use a toggle bolt to clamp the earth wire ( uninsulated is best as it saves having to strip the ends ) and run to a plant pot with soil in - job done it's earthed innit bruv and the inspector will be amazed at the ingenious solution ,
 
What's all this specialist nonsense? There's no point in over egging the pudding, selotape man!
Think of your bottom line here!
or masking tape, thats a good one, seen it before around connectors on wall lights, a smashing Job well done by the guy concerned :icon10:
