This guy has some interesting ideas though...

Ridiculous, he needs to feed the cable from the base, not the top, the water will just follow the cable in there!

I mean, it's the basics.....

Almost passed by the video, as I'd assumed it was posted from some far flung location, but did a double take when I spotted the BS 1363 socket.

@littlespark he’s with either Stroma or NICEIC - he did a video about joining and his assessment!

He'd have a job being a member of Stroma. They don't exist anymore.

Where's he going to put his sandwiches now though?

 

[Voltimax]

I’m a member...

And you don't realise that Napit owns it now?

 

[Baddegg]

Yep well aware napit owns it...but my membership still has stroma on it...and it was only renewed last week ?

 

[Andy78]

I'm a Stroma member and the brand is still operating. It is now owned by Napit and trades as Stroma installer certification.

I'm in the process of switching to Napit though.

You're a member of Napit, don't kid yourself. Just like all those Elecsa guy's, they're Niceic. There are only two players out there now. Niceic and Napit.

Same here, I would’ve changed this year but as my membership ran out right at the beginning of lockdown but stroma allowed me to continue notifying I thought it best just to carry on with em for another year.....I also need to move from strima as I can’t write stroma on here with out my phone auto correcting it to @Strima!!! ?

My certs have stroma on em and I’m pretty sure I couldn’t put the napit logo my van?.....as with @Andy78 I will be changing proper to napit, but regardless of who owns who my membership is with stroma ?

No, STROMA is a brand which is owned by NAPIT, ELECSA is a brand owned by certsure who also own NICEIC.

Dewalt, Irwin, Mac tools are all owned by black and decker, but that doesn'tean any tool you buy from them is a black and decker tool.

Not exactly the same comparison. Those tools you mention are products, not services.
It's likely that Stroma members will automatically become Napit in time. Napit didn't acquire Stroma for the electrical scheme. You're correct about certsure though. Napit and Stroma isn't the same though. I have a choice to joining either Nic or Elecsa. No one can join Stroma now as far as I'm aware. Just look online, there isn't an option to join the electrical scheme because it doesn't exist.
Going back to brands though. Crabtree, Wylex, Volex and Marbo are all owned by electrium. All those circuit breakers etc are most definitely the same. The same can be said for Control gear and Lewden. They're the same products.
