Hi guys.
Fuseboard looks fine, but all neutrals are connected at one point outside the fuseboard. That way both rcds trip on fault on any of the circuirs.How would yiu code that?
P.s. also no glanding and cables rubbing on the sharp edges of CU?
Thanks

FI for the neutral conductors and RCD’s

C2’s for the lack of mechanical protection, IP rating and single insulated cables out side of an enclosure.

C1 for sheer stupidity.

I am surprised that they dont trip whenever anything is used, let alone a fault.

Perhaps that's why an EICR is being carried out.

That is horrendous. How long has it been like that?

Some unqualified 'electrician' have just installed the board a week ago without certificate, and the landlord asks for EICR, so he can rent the property. The flat is still completely empty.

Nothing was plugged, the flat is completely empty. Newly installed board... fresh disaster

The landlord is going to be delighted when he realises the full extent of his 'savings' on this new board.
