Basically they put a list of new regulations into a hat, give it a shuffle and each member picks out a regulation and they have a good chuckle over it!
Let the b*stards (that's us)figure this one out mhaaaaahhhaaa

Careful now some forum members maybe offended by that

Too many mirrors David.

This reminds me of a house I moved in to in 1975 built in 1936. After a few years I decided to check the earth out as I noticed we had 2 overhead wires + and -. There was no earth system at all so I
Bought an earth rod and wired it to the fuse box accordingly.
Then the MEB came and wired the earth to neutral WTF. If that had never been brought in would they allow that now?
I think they also used to use a 12" square galvanized plate buried in the ground. I've just dug one up here, house built in 1934.
