Lucky student on 1st rewire, what's wrong with the 1st 3??

[Chrisuk]

Day 1

3 pictures that you can say what's wrong with them, it's what we found before we ripped it all out

I'm doing my C&G level 2 2365 and will be finishing 1st fix soon

The this was hidden above the ceiling

And finally

Some pics after we got the new wires in, just for me to keep track of the things I do

Nice little bundle, I'm sure that can add up very fast

So what you going to do after Monday lunchtime:sifone:

Clean the van then pick out some black bogies the rest of the day :shades_smile:

Nope..I dread the day we need to start notifying ...just another headache on top the other admin.

Think you will find rewiring flats and anything over 3 storeys and above need a building warrant.
in turn they need a certificate of construction for the work carried out.
this is due to the fire integrity of the structure. Probably being compromised in the rewiring.
some labc depts are tighter on this than others though.
this has been in since 2005 so I would think they know the score by now, but apparently not.

So, you are telling me you can get literally your mum to rewire your house and don't have to have any qualifications what so ever, or experience, and just do it and don't need to notify, and don't have any part pee, and that's ok? Oh and no need to be in a scam?

If that's the case, it just sounds so illegally wrong and you could literally have hundreds of cowboys doing work for people that make Electrical Trainee look good.

going in at the deep end here and no armbands; met a sparks mate who'd come off council rewires early 90's south uk......3 blokes, 1 day, 'by hook or by crook'... his words!

He does seem decent, still don't believe he has done over 3000 rewires but that's another story not for here.

So you ask people not to make comments and then you make one yourself almost straight away! Daz

I think you will find they have a history of just repeating themselves on the same topic. Slightly different to posting a response to what someone else has responded with.
