I am confident that, having seen these photos, the NICEIC will fully investigate this matter and ultimately remove this so-called electrician from their membership. There is no way that any professional organisation would allow work of this dangerous standard to be associated with their name.
strange....i cant recall saying anything about who had the most quals...Your saying that a register of electricians with a boat load of qualifications hanging out their back pocket would stop this happening, it won't.
He probably has all them. Too many people on here when they see this type of work are quick to jump in and say its the polish lot or the Electrical Trainee brigade when the fact is I see this type of work from time served highly qualified electricians who for whatever reason don't give a ---- anymore.
Don't blame a building regulation and the introduction of schemes for this, nor should you seek it's abolishment to make things right.
This has been going on for years and its only now via the Internet and camera phone technology that people are able to share it with the big bad world.
I didn't say it wasn't bad and I didn't say that the NICEIC are interested. I was making the point that your idea that a register where only the ones with the most quals gets in wont solve it.

i will agree with that Murdoch.....so, why have the scams?....Bottom line, scams, or no scams, there is nothing to stop shoddy work.
If the scams were seen to inspect, intervene and uphold best practice etc, etc, then the slide downhill may stop.
i`m not on about that electricsafe thing either.....another kneejerk reaction..
eng its clear.....It WILL if it has the teeth to deal with such offenders. Just like they do in other countries, that have a National Registration system. You start with a foundation for entry purposes, electrical qualifications fulfill that basic foundation, without them you're lost and on a hiding to nothing before you even start!!
Yes you're right, there have always been qualified rogue electricians, ...in a way they are worse than the electrical trainee's, because they will KNOW they are doing crap work!! These characters will also be hit hard by any deregistering from a National Register, because the rule will be, that you will not be allowed to perform any paid electrical work, nor operate as a self employed sole trader, or be employed as an electrician without that registration being in place!!
