Electrician did not trunk earth wiring - is this legal in UK?

[andyparker2007]

Firstly, just want to establish that I am a normal member of the public and not an electrician, and coming on here for some expert advice.

I had my flat checked for electrical safety by a NICEIC certified electrician. He did £500 worth of work, but I am feeling a bit conned. He fitted a new RDC consumer unit (fuse box) and did earth bonding cabling for gas and water.

The problem is that I have these ugly earthing cables running around my flat and even outside my flat. He did not even trunk these cables. Is this a legal standard of workmanship or is it legitimate for me to raise a complaint. Anyone's advice would be much appreciate, as I really feel a bit ripped off!!

I don't really care to be be honest, sounds as though hes got a beef with the spark. He should have it out with the person who done the job, stop moaning about him on a forum.

Maybe the sparks already had enough of him ?

Exactly mate and I'm not one for slating a fellow Spark on the forums. You don't do do it in my books.
