What is going on, surly this clown can't be for real?

Quoted this job Friday for a board change, customer has shown me the work completed by the last electrican.

He has used 10mm clips for the 2.5tne that comes direct from the sockets.

 

[telectrix]

just goes to show. done on the cheap by a Electrical Trainee desperate to get his £6000 back.

Better than I feared , its not in the "conveniently-easy-to drill" Drain pipe !

Wow, there is no IP on that junction box at all. Wonder if the board has any RCD protection as it would have picked it up by now. Especially after the rain from Hurricane GErt on the weekend
BAD

Agree wholeheartedly, any idea if this Cowboy was/is registered with any of the scams robo?

 

[telectrix]

might have saved drilling the cavity wall if he'd come out the meter box, direct from the DNO 100A fuse. saves tripping the RCD/s in the house.

Kin abortion if this pillock is charging and belongs to a scam he wants a chemical lobotomy, on second thoughts looks like he has had one. a terrible job, wants taken to task, words fail me.

Maybe he didn't have any 10.0 for those clips so had to use 2.5

The board is supplied via RCD main switch which currently hasn't tripped. However it has been installed since mid 80's and has not been tested.

This guy is a member of a scheme, he apparently also has a sign written van advertising his skills.

 

[telectrix]

advertising what???? get round there and rip him a new one.

 

[westward10]

Well if the client has proof he did these works you know what he/she should do. Having said that the house does look familiar.
