Just back from a callout.. The joys..

[NDG Elecs]

Microwave, extractor fan and man cave all going through a 13A FCU... Man cave has 5kW of heating in it, a beer fridge, TV, etc etc...oh and it's fed via a 1mm cable!
The FCU was replaced three weeks ago by a college lecturer (teaches electrics)..
The neutral feed I suspect was not tightened up at all, as I would have half expected the terminal screw to be 'welded' due to the heat but it moved freely..
On the plus side I will be getting more work to sort it out properly..

Can anyone spot the other thing wrong in the first photo..
