Redoing rubbish work

[magnoliafan89]

Got to a job today only to find out as well as a test I needed to do some remedial works to the board as the company we had subcontracting to us had made a state of it.
Have come across a few of their bits of handy work, they say a plastic board is a c2 and then change it and management were happy as it was dead cheap...neglecting the logic that if it didn't need changing anything over £0 was infact NOT cheap.

Now I'm not saying mine is spectacular but for a short notice job I was quite satisfied.

So here's before.......

And after

And I know I know I have the main switch on with the cover off...but had to make my pictures purdy with lighting

At least they left the hole for the earth cable rough so it made good contact

I’ve seen a lot worse.

yes messy and lazy workmanship, but I couldn’t make out anything dangerous from the images.

Had they never heard of grommet strip or tails glands ?

I.p rating of the bottom of the board exceeded IP2X
Sharp metal edges of the containment have not been provided with protection.

Both classed as a c2.

Same electrician different place

They classed the old board as dangerous as it didn't have RCD protection to the lights (even though there was supplementary bonding) and it was plastic....so naturally they fit a board that is totally acceptable...

S@me guy. He needs a talking too.

The damage to those tails is totally avoidable.

It's rough and unprofessional but I have seen a lot worse. Looks a good job after the tidying up though. Never trust anyone who doesn't take pride in their work and clearly this person doesn't

 

[magnoliafan89]

That's what an £80 board change gets you

 

[Dustydazzler]

For £80 that’s actually not a bad job , £89 board changes in my area dint even bother with earth sleeving
