Are those safety sunglasses?

 

[Mike Johnson]

But no helmet.

 

[Julie.]

But no helmet.

They all look like helmets to me.

Good job he's wearing a harness.

 

[Mike Johnson]

That's not a harness it's his braces.

Why would you need to put tape on a light colour battery to write on the date?


Oh, that's why

Someone thought it a good idea to bend the busbar to fit a different MCB....
Not me!

 

[Mike Johnson]

The wholesaler I used would pre-bend them for me. ?

You jest, but I had a client the other day who requested I fit a C20 breaker to a BG CU for a foul water pump, he offered to pick up the part if I could fit some time in, only to be informed his wholesaler had given him a wylex and a hager and "one would definitely fit"

wonder if they, or their employers, realise the potential of giving advice like this...

Apparently this lights always worked, RCD only started tripping the other day.

Why do people make these claims? only ends up costing them more...

monkey see, monkey sell.

Wholesalers are the font of all knowledge one said to me the other day, cold out ain't it, you know what he was correct.

This video popped up in Youtube suggestions today. Delroy's customer claimed the work was carried out by a spark, so I'll leave it here for you to decide deride.

Really special stuff can be found near the end, but plenty of horrors from start to finish.

Totally using the wrong testers to trace a ring fault, knowing the loop resistance is key to working out if you have some kind of ring or a bodged spider network. Also ELI results at each socket could give clues as to what is a possible radial before you even start removing tops, he will get their eventually but its time wasting trying to find the fault with a simply voltage/continuity tester.
What is confusing here is he brings out a top end multi-function tester at the end so it's not like he hasn't got the goods to do it.
