More part P quality installation

[Welchyboy1]

Just arrived at a job today to change a CU, after bit of testing found N-E fault on upstairs ring, went up stairs and found this!


this was installed by a bedroom fitter, last week, the lady asked for some extra double sockets and one had to be moved in her bedroom which the fitter done before plastering, then was coming back to fit the bedroom units afterwards

he told the lady he was also a registered electrician(was part p elecsa), charged her £200 cash for this and it took him all day apparently!

i have not altered any of this before the photos this is as was installed!

he left the blue tape on the back box as he cracked it and said he would change it later

i ripped it all out and re installed it for her afterwards

it doesnt even look like he used new kit, i think it was old stuff from another job

Cant believe he didnt get the cable under the floor at least, and what a way to extend a ring circuit

he must have stripped those cables with his teeth , out of interest what did the customer think of it ??

shocking

I bet the guy said to the lady , Yeh I can do lectric's you see anyone can do it , its only 3 wires init , what can go wrong

It will probably be His 100 yard swimming certificate!

It won't be that, he will need that for when the crap plumbing job he does for the next person springs a leak!

Part P is a joke, how someone can walk away from that is unbelievable and there giving true electricians a bad bad name. Why can a bedroom fitter be allowed to do this and get away with it because he's part P, should be called part **** take, disgusting.

How can anybody sleep in one of his bedroom re fits after he's messed with the sockets , come to think of it how can anybody live in the house...
What a mess...

Well i will try and defend myself as this is one of my best installs...... is leaving 6 inches of copper sticking out of the terminals not acceptable Trev ??
I measured that trunking 5 times with a snapped ruler before i super glued it to the wall so i dont know why its short ???
I accidentally drilled the entry whole to high in the socket and then it bloody cracked...... perhaps it was because i had my sds drill on hammer ????
Oh and the joint box is because i tapped off the shower to feed a fan ???
Was my 17 day course worth it Trev ??? I paid my scheme the annually fee and the said crack on son !!!! :Angel_anim:

Sorry chaps just banter but these dik heads need stopping now !!!!!!!
Hope everyones good this evening !!!!
