Things that make your blood boil...

[Tiny Spark]

1) circuits not labelled up with feed location and boards incorrectly or stupidly labeled.

2) badly wired plugs

3) people pulling off labels stuck on cables for ID

4) disorganised tool box
(Yes i really am that ---- about my jimmys!)

5) the age old "that should only take 5 mins, whats taking so long!?"

6) lazy terminations (loose or loads of copper on show)

Prob many more but they are some of my pet peevs.

Have you had the apprentice carrying the cable

not recharging the mewp.

Or as it usually seems to be, borrow the MEWP, fill it with plaster, run it flat, leave it outside at the bottom of a slope and forget to give the key back.

Hard hats in finished offices because 'on paper it's still a site until handover'

Sparks who can't spell 'neutral', 'fluorescent' or 'circuit'

Yes, but that's not the issue. There's nothing to say that marking needs to be a certain length.

Sorry for the most pointless post ever but there is in the osg or regs, something along the line of not covering the entire cable,

I've also got a couple of drums of 10mm earth that I got from CEF recently and the ends of the drums are made out of some pathetic, thin, brittle wood that every time the drum comes out the van at the next job a big Chunk of the end of the drum is missing!

When you go to CEF and every time you buy a double socket they charge you a different price

I don't think there is, unless you are thinking of the requirements for PENs?

Perhaps I could say people who go to CEF and cause them to still be in business, but that would be horrible thing to say so I wont!:38:
