A work of art Jon, what the hell is going on with those reds sleeved blue?
I've seen worse rats nests btw, not many worse but they are out there

 

[jonnyboy1]

this in an solar install the company i work for has carried out was pretty bad



we were fitting an ldc/network meter into the circuit and this is what it looked like when i left a lot better in my eyes

Not the neatest mains i've done, but i was forever getting moved by the joiners and plumber on site.. New build, 4 bed. We did the Alarm aswell.

Worth a 9 at least.
Those cpcs could be a bit tidier!

 

[sedgy34]

I reckon that was a cocktail of rushing and lack of experience
After all the job is easy to do they could have put inverter higher and everything else under it!!

 

[jonnyboy1]

It's mainly rushing the job mate council propertys and being on a price per job and plus the company had no quality control what so ever

 

[sedgy34]

Ha yeh no quality at all!!
What area you do Pv

 

[sedgy34]

Neatish but Not that good either the integrity of the db comes into question the size of the hole in the back of it.

Good job DurhamSparky. I love the sockets, BT point and spur on the nib. Looks really smart. Don't you use capping on your installs? I know you dont have to with it been all RCD protected, and I'm not saying your in the wrong what s ever. Just interested to hear why you don't, as we use it.

 

[DurhamSparky]

no particular reason... mainly because i don't like it and apart from protecting the cable from said idiots trowel it offers zero protection at all... (plastic capping)

some times depending on chase depth you get a better finish with out the capping having to be covered over as well... them extra few mm can be the difference!!

that kitchen job was a right pain as it initially started as a move stuff about job but then it ended up been full rewire as i found that many JB's in walls i just went sod it!!

To sedgy34

Its mainly Glasgow but the firm has won solar contracts in York Lincoln and Colchester. Me and my mate are heading down to Penrith in a few weeks to finish a job to connect micro inverters into the system all on a flat roof which is a bounus

 

[sedgy34]

[jonnyboy1]

No not doing the free installs it's Mainly council property's were working in
