Done some work recently on a local new build estate (Countryside Homes), the standard of electrical work is dire (mind you the build quality is rubbish also), is this normal on new builds?
In the house I worked on today the consumer unit looked like spaghetti junction, there were two holes in the bottom of the consumer unit where the sparks had drilled holes and then decided to put the tails elsewhere and all the lighting circuits were on one RCD. The whole job looked like it had been done by Stevie Wonder whilst ----ed. To be frank my eight year old could have done a better job. I was shocked by the lack of pride shown by whoever had completed the work.
