I'm off to put an outside light for someone, using the plug....sorry switch....sorry plug on the wall. Oh no they sold me a dud one, no the lights not working...tell you what plug in that metal kettle in the new earthless socket I just fitted whilst I think here !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Now thats what we should be showing future customers when they say they found someone cheaper !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Couple of points I noticed

The guy was an utter plonker
The expert quickly pointed out that the " light wouldn't work" because "there is no neutral at the switch" or plug as plonker called it :confused:
This might put some of us in an awkward position next time we wire in the same outside light to a switch that does have the neutral at the switch
Should he mave made the all sweeping statement that they dont ?
The changed socket appeared to have dis coloured insulation,or perhaps my eyes are dimming

Why was the opportunity to promote an electrican who could produce a scheme or Jib card missed
