So, they want a shower. Mate will do it, he is a plumber. 2 spare ways in the board, no prob...just put another breaker in. Simples

This was EXACTLY as I found it when I opened the cupboard door. NOTHING has been moved / removed.

I explained to the Landlord that there were a couple of minor niggles with it.

I know what I would like to say, but I would probably have to ban myself for a few weeks if I did. If they do this on parts that are accessible, what do they do on the hidden stuff?

No joke....EXACTLY as I found it!

The 'Flying MCB'....I believe it to be the way forward. No messing about with Din rails, enclosures [was in a cupboard though], space restrictions etc.

I guess you can run more amps through the MCB because it has better ventilation?

Thats got to be sent to esc. Maybe they can include it in the "why to get a proper sparks in" leaflet.

I think I can see why you are upset now. Looks like its missing a grommet where the cable comes out of the db.

 

[Doc Hudson]

I have moved this to the Black Museum, obvious reasons.

The grommet?

whats the betting the neutral insulation has been nicked when he made his first incision into the cable to pull out the line?

 

[ProDave]

Apart from any "tradesman" being incompetent enough to do a job like that, it's astounding that the customer accepted it and didn't question if the job had been done properly.

Did the customer actually pay someone to do that? if so the person who did it needs reporting to trading standards at least.

I think removing basic protection is criminally negligent.

 

[kerching]

My vision was a little blurred at the time, but I think there was a grommet in!

Not spotted the 'banjo' anomally?

Now that i have sussed out the picture posting I will have to root out some more good pics

[ianmacd]

I don;t use banjos any more. Not now God invented piranha nuts.

Landlord let property to a chap seperated from his wife. Basically....tenant wanted a shower. Landlord paid for shower unit. tenant installed it. tenant never actually moved in to property as he got back with his wife. I was asked to 'cast an eye' over it......eye was duly cast.... :coat

kerching,

You might get a couple of quid for that one in the Professional Electrician mag?

That is unbelievable!!!

 

[NozSpark]

I've got to say that's probably the worst install I've ever seen...

Quality

Mmmmmmmmmm Piranha nuts!

I bought a couple of Ball ended Hex Drivers for the Allen Screw; doesn't half make life easier, just 'nip 'em up' with the standard key after....simples

[steptoe]

just buy a decent ball end allen key, 'BETA' are my make of choice.

as for the pics,

really truly outstanding,

I could live without the grommet and the banjo not being tagged if that was even the half of it............

 

[Sidewinder]

Ball ended hex keys are VERY useful!

I have mm & inch angle ones in my box both of them!

Tool boxes that is!

Not yet gone down the road of ball ended hex screwdrivers though!

I concur with the making it easier bit!
