What are your views on this plumtricians install

[Nigel sparks]

Hi seen this install in a restaurant toilet , the copper pipe is not earthed and he has managed to get two flexes in it. What is your opinion please?

Restaurant is owned by a one Michelin star chef. Maybe he should sell Michelin tyres instead if he is doing the plumtricians work

Can't get my head around cable entry and exit. Surely no one could stand back and take it in thinking 'that looks good'.

I was beginning to think it was only me who thought it was bad , there seems to be a lot of support/defence for it

Shiny copper pipe usually looks good in the gents when stood at the urinal when I’m admiring the ---- tiling on the wall ??

The likelihood or not of the flex being cut into by the pipe ends depends a lot on how the pipe was cut and deburred. A pipe cutter leaves a razor sharp edge inside the end of the pipe, which should then be flattened off by a V shaped tool rotated in the end of the pipe. If used properly the sharp edge is removed, but not the whole bur.
As a plumbtrician myself, on multiple occasions, and despite warnings, I've had kids pounce on short (3mm - 10mm) trimmings from the end of pipes, slip them on their fingers, shouting "mummy, I've got a gold ring" before dissolving into floods of tears as the crimson starts flowing.

Hmmm, and what happens when Wayne the local handyman decides to Tee into it in 2 years time cuz the restaurant owner wants an outside tap.
