If he/she had used blue we would have been in uproar...
That would have warranted a danger notice

He must have been back to complete the testing and certification. wouldn't He, or not as the case may be??????????????Could the sparks have just never returned to finish the 2nd fix..?
That is actually an intrinsically safe volt stick for use in hazardous atmosphere.That volt stick is far to clean DD, Westy got all excited when he found that live cable, cheap Voltstick by the way.
Now you have gone and done it Westy, where, and how much? I have to have one, or are you pulling our legs? well no I guess not.That is actually an intrinsically safe volt stick for use in hazardous atmosphere. View attachment 50066
No problem, they wanted some extra work doing.What was the problem that was reported by the customer?
What like the consumer unit being reinstalled correctly and circuits tested as I will have a guess that there is no certificate available.No problem, they wanted some extra work doing.
Screwfix where Bodgers get their stuff????Why is it always BG boards with the unused breakers left in place?

Currently in the process of doing just that. I forgot to mention that there are no labels currently on the board cover, other than one below the main switch. How anybody can make such a poor job of replacing such a consumer unit is beyond me, its not like theres much in it. This was probably all done in less than hour, literally swapped like for like with no concern what any of the circuits might be doing.The good thing is the board looks perfectly reusable and not butchered beyond repair.
So I would just strip all the cables out , re do the board and fitting the correct grommets etc.
Thorough test on all circuits and remove any redundant stuff , re label up the board and complete eicr.
Nice clean days work...
And they said Part P and belonging to one of these schemes would put an end to all this. This installation has not been done by someone competent.

Trouble is the customer needs to know that work needs to be compliant with the regs, and Part P. How many customers know that they should be expecting certificates or could have difficulties if they or their electricians don’t notify?
Not enough public knowledge.
I suspect the guy throwing consumer units at a wall for £150 a pop is getting more work than me.
Give me one board change for £300 and 2x hours work rather than 2 @ £150 and x hours each any day!I suspect the guy throwing consumer units at a wall for £150 a pop is getting more work than me.
