Well one of the builders i do a fair bit arranged for me to see this job Monday coming.
Got a call last night from them at 8.15pm. Asking my advice.
Along the lines of
"we knocked a light fitting while stripping wall paper from the ceiling and now nothing works" there is 1 black cable not in"
Instead of going out i told him to stick it with the neutral, everything fixed. naughty i know lol but i had had a Guiness DrinkGuiness Drink
He then goes on to tell me there is no earth on the lighting at all, its an old rewireable fuse board AND they had a "rewired" kitchen last month! by there "electrician"
How long ago was they installing cables to lights with no earth?
What else is going to crop up here!
I know the work ive got is to do with the llights, so its complete light circuit rewire, but then at that point ive got to RCD protect it?
Think this could get expensive for the customer!
not too sure about it, but i think i should be saying new CU really. much easier i bet!
Any one any advice on this one! think im going to get a few "issues"
