having to bite lip!

[Hawk]

A job I have been doing has ran over schedule and the supervisor has been asking why.
I work with another spark and he's a nice guy but seems to be that he doesn't really know how to wire emergency lighting or pir's and I end up having to correct his wiring mistakes, hence the hold up. I have told him to mark cables so he knows what's what, but why should I have to tell a qualified spark what to do!! He should know this stuff!

What would you guys do in this situation?

 

[Tiny Spark]

Educate him.
Its easier to teach him how to do it right first time than it is to bugger about changing stuff.

 

[Hawk]

He should be educated! But yeah I know what your saying.

 

[Tiny Spark]

Everyone is educated in something but it may not be E-lights!

 

[Hawk]

Well he has done it before in a previous job! Any good electrician, in my opinion, would know this stuff. If not they should study more or go back to college.

 

[Tiny Spark]

Well if he has done it before then I agree he should know it.
Wiring E-lights is not all that hard really, Trying to decide on size type and placement though is another kettle of fish

Sorry I didn't mention this is just replacing exsisting fittings!

tie a bit of brown wire to his left leg. L (eft) for Live. a bit of blue to his right leg R (ight) for Return. and wrap the green/yellow round his bloody dong.
