You get a shock Clive ?

Bad that lol. Funny how stupid and clueless some people are. One for the 'if it works its obviously fine' brigade.
 
Given the degree of muppetry and f'kwittery that has gone on here, I can't understand why they didn't also snip the cpc off right at the end of the cable. Small mercies, eh?

Because they had no snips, it's hard to use a trowel to chop cables and double up as a screwdriver.

Ah, fair enough. I was assuming they'd just use their teeth. Must not've had any left.
 
I had a client a couple of years back that thought the L2 on a two way light switch was where the CPC went.....he was a 'proper' engineer allegedly....
 
As someone who now works in security I would say that this is the perfect security light. Turn it on and not only can you see what you are doing, but you get to see the shocking sight of anyone dumb enough to try nicking the lamp (bulb):nopity:
