Discuss how the trade has fallen in the UK Electrical Forum area at ElectriciansForums.net

I thought this EICR was supposed to have been done last year or so?
Probably the guy has heard of who lives there, then bottles out just as he's reaching for the doorbell.
 
i'd love to do the periodic at tonys though.

being the big shot engineer he is you just know his house wiring will be a shambles lol.

i'd fail his --- so fast he wouldnt have time to even flash his IET club card........

;-)
 
The customer from hell, ME!

Monday a poor schmuck came to change a smoke detector.
He just turned off the RCBO and got on with the job. Once he’d removed the old unit I proceeded to give a lecture on the inadequacies of SP RCBO’s and the need for safe isolation.
For some strange reason he nearly ran from the house.

I can’t wait for the next idiot that comes to do the EICR. Looks like that will be next year now so I’ve got to be patient.



Before anyone says anything I still haven’t got around to getting rid of the RCBO’s.
just for you tony i would pull the main fuse then fit a 100a rotary isolator XD
