    I couldn't help but notice the copper water pipes passing through the electrical supply authority's meter mounting back board. All l can say is l only hope that you get paid at the end of the day for all your input into the job. Keep up the good work and stay safe.

    Nice one Del for wiring 2 new legs for the ring while you had the opportunity instead of keeping the crimped legs!!

    So similar to my daughter's ex-council late 1950s maisonette. Structure built to survive atom bomb. Her non-load walls thicker hard klinker block.
    Pipes, electrics, heating: all showing 3 generations of re-fitting by council direct labour or subcontractors and their do it fast, never mind any diligence methods. Consumer unit here is much more recent than hers

    We all know this job will come up smelling of roses when the customer tells you the kitchen fitters are doing the wiring. What's the betting he has you cert the property when the kit fitters have done a runner.

    • @havoctrousers
      @havoctrousers Před 2 lety +1

      I mean, I guess it sort of works? If you put a rod in the ground and the gas supply pipe is also in the ground then you're getting some bonding to it through the medium of soil if it's wet enough. Still, it's a weird thing to do, and clearly the person who did it had no idea on how bonding works and what its purpose is. That exposed termination won't last 5 minutes either.

  • @eyeswideshut7732
    @eyeswideshut7732 Před 8 dny

    question, if a house is wired in old black and red, does it have to be changed by law even if its all good and safe??

    Is it ok to chase boxes into those thin block walls? I'm sure regs say you shouldn't remove more than 1/3rd the thickness of the wall.

    • @martincoldwell1516
      @martincoldwell1516 Před rokem

      It’s perfectly fine as it isn’t a substantial load bearing wall, and because it is block the load bearing is also over a greater surface area, the reg your thinking of is on bricks due to the smaller size

    'Bonding' a gas pipe to an earth rod which is located literally where the gas pipe goes into the ground is a massive contradiction

    why is there such a big thing about having a single socket ring. my house up until a month ago had a single for whole house. i have ac units and alot of devices plugged still downt get anywhere near 32 amp. most people arent pulling 8kw really ever. only time i can see it being an issue is in a house in which space heaters are used. devices are getting more efficient as time goes on so really we are going to need less capacity.
