flat submains and landlords suuply

Trunking already in situ, M/C Switch fuses bushed into said trunking underneath, SWA terminated into said trunking, unsheathed SWA core run into individual Switch fuses with appropriate earth sleeveing . Insulated and sheathed tails run to DNOs equipment, all nice and neat and safe oodles of space left

Looks like something a 4 month old baby with a farleys risk in one hand and a baby bottle in the other could draw in a couple of minutes lol

 

[danzor]

lots of trunking !

 

[pbarrett]

looks like a smoke packet railway/tube map

 

[danzor]

It's not to scale either !

I think you've already stated your doing one but before I'd even consider touching this stuff it would be a day or two of indepth inspection/test (EICR) to baseline the whole installation --- if you think it looks bad at this end I be scared sh*tless would might have happened at the flat ends!. Then and only then can you discuss the way fwd with whoever owns the place and how you are going to rectify & certify it?!?!

Pencil's blunt as well

 

[danzor]

something like this and you can't go wrong

 

[danzor]

I'm just baffled how a provider would install the meters with the install looking like that.

Must of been a big brown envelope

 

[pbarrett]

yes I have commenced an EICR today and going through the 4flats ad found some issues that I have been asked to address as I go. only seen the basement today as couldn't access it on my initial visit, hence my concerns and sound advice needed

 

[Badged01]

As a matter of interest why did the original 'electrician' leave the job?

 

[pbarrett]

it has surprised me too that the DNO have put the meters so far away from supply and the main cable in crosses over the meter tails

 

[pbarrett]

As a matter of interest why did the original 'electrician' leave the job?

I believe a dispute over money and clocking days n the job when he wasn't there, it all looks rushed

 

[ferg]

I'd be cautious just in case the previous guy bailed because of non payment.

Maybe just do the EICR and issue an invoice.
See how it goes from there.

 

[pbarrett]

I have been paid for today on the job, and I have done a different job for the contractor ordering the work and paid for that also, so im not worried on that front, in any case they wont get any paperwork until im fully paid
