Thank You Mr. Wetpants, You Inconsiderate Imbecile

[JK-Electrical]

I've seen some really bad plumbing installations over the years, but this one really takes the biscuit. I went to do an EICR yesterday afternoon, but had to abandon the job as I was unable to gain access to the main switch, or even remove the cover from the board. Completely unacceptable. GRRRRRRRRRRR.

I'm wondering if any gas regulations have been breached here. I'm also wondering if wetpants has to issue a certificate when he does boiler installations. The homeowner says she wasn't given a certificate for the work. She is hopping mad and will be speaking with her solicitor first thing tomorrow.

Great pics JK! I suppose if ALL the reds and blacks throughout were transposed you could just sticker the CU accordingly...
Or maybe not!

As we installed new wiring for the smoke and heat alarms a mixed-colours warning was necessary. The other three yellow labels are the periodic test notice, RCD test notice, and a warning notice that the dining room light has no functional CPC. I was going to add a fifth label: Warning: the guy who installed the boiler is a complete and utter **** but I ran out of space".

Give yourself and the lad a pat on the back,the lad seems like he's being directed onto the right path

I suppose a trainee seeing what electrical mutilation looks like first hand
It can demonstrate what should not take place

Unfortunately it can also become a lesson in what can be got away with in this trade,mainly by clueless warriors with no conception of the dangers they inflict on people
