Just doing a CU change and there's no continuity on the rig main which does down stairs upstairs and kitchen all on one circuit. The plumber had recently added underfloor heating to this circuit in a bathroom.

I asked him for his results and he went mental at me saying he didn't need a certificate because it was already there.

All I wanted was his continuity results to see if he cause the fault or it was already there

Looking back through this thread - what is actually the question? Or, are you just telling us what's happened today...which we all do

Let the forum know what the problem was, and how you rectified it

and his plumbing too lol

He hasn't tested the mat! The continuity is lost on live neutral and cpc!!! I can't put he whole house on a 20amp. It might be a fault from years ago but he should have tested it before adding more load! He hasn't certificated or notified and he said well I can get an electrician to come do a certificate quickly and there won't be a problem lol

Onanist. Tell him you connected your ch boiler to the gas supply and watch his reaction.

Will be if you tell the LABC before he gets the electrician there:wink5:

Just out of curiosity, are you one of these 5 week wander electricians? no offence intended.

Hard to tell. Make up your own mind:

green and yellow cable

new to this... NICEIC inspection soon

@Trev. Excellent idea. I'll remember that one (fitted own gas).

I wasn't asking any advice I was just letting people no how **** my day was going. He started ranting about not need a certificate. In the end he rang back and apologised. I later ripped down his lovely new ply wall and found a 2.5mm leg of this ring in connectors taped up floating around inside the wall Lol. A nice maintenance free joint box to reconnect it to the underfloor heating. Rang him to tell him and he wants me to do some work for him this week lol

P.s. am I a 5 week electrician???? Was that meant for me?

 

[varilite]

2 radials wedged into one breaker probably

In that case Join the other end together and voila a ring!

 

[GLENNSPARK]

You're gonna have one happy client unless you can find it somewhere. It could be that the earths have popped out somewhere. As E54 has said, check the FCU where the plumber has put his underfloor heating and see if the earths are connected to the terminal.

It'll be either simple or a massive effort.

and R1..Rn?

well he were talkin out of his botty hole here as well then as its a minor works....

Yeah, i just presumed he meant earth from his OP then he commented after i said that, that he didn't have end-to-end on either L, N or E. So yeah, they could be all out...but more than likely 2 radials smashed together or an abortion of a ring.

and if he had end to ends on the live conductors...but not on the CPC....say it was an ECR?

Well then there's a break in the cable, loose connections or they're possible parallel paths. I hope we're not trying to go back to school here glenn lol.

If there wasn't a CPC, it'd be a C2 all day and night on a ring.
