Quality DB change I come across this morning. Whoever done it has extended nearly every circuit with 15amp block including the ring final circuits. And look at the quality SWA termination in to the wiska box.

I apologize for the pics loading upside down.

Some great pics Kamikaze ...just hoping these are not your back catalogue in disguise

Nah…It’s not uncommon for me to go into a meltdown when confronted by a wonky socket. I’m too much of a goody goody for this kind of shenanigans. I do envy those with such creative minds and their ability to sleep at night. That’s why reading about their mini adventures on the forum is so enjoyable. It’s like being in the waiting room for hell….lol.

Tut tut tut, that path level must be at least 7" above where it should be ... risk of rising damp! AKA rain splash back in this case!

Nice neutral connection

Nice earth connection on the same cable, was just shoved through a hole in the bottom of the mcc.

There aren't any crimps underneath that tape!

the old twist and tape then?

Bobster · Mar 27, 2015

Whoever had done it had just splayed the cores and pushed them together. I think you'd struggle to twist 70mm

I’ve got a condition that prevented me from moving the socket out of the shower area. It’s called not giving a ****.
