Kev the Kitchen fitter

[Pete999]

Helped out on a job last week with camerabloke, ran a main earth bond to the gas OK, no water pipe installed yet, so we ran a 10mm earth cable to the position closest to the stop cock position, arrived this morning to find the 10mm cable buried behind the kitchen cabinets, unable to reach it I asked the client where the earth cable was, oh he said, the kitchen fitter come part P qualified Electrical Trainee said, the Regs say we don't need it anymore, oh God Kev stick to what you know, which aint much and leave the important stuff to those who are competent, qualified and able to undertake this important work, you freakin muppet.

Kev the kitchen twart. At least it was chargeable and the clients passing the bill to Kevin

I hope you took a hammer to the back of the unit to rectify the issue

 

[telectrix]

[Pete999]

Luckily we where able to rerun the cable still a bugger though

 

[telectrix]

i like power tools tools and making noise, the hammers for educating the kitchen fitter.

job I'm on at the moment the boarders covered over the main stairs void before we could get our cables in so one of the lads made a daft pose on the wall and we drew round it and cut it out then sorted our cables and binned the cut out board, the lads face was a picture, why be a rough arse and smash it to bits when you can have a laugh instead

 

[telectrix]

Came home one day and the barstewards had let themselves in and swapped me meter, I just went mental!!!

But which part? :rofl: Oh I think I can guess!!

 

[GLENNSPARK]

i`v had it where the cable drops for downlights have been plastered over...trapped by the boards...

i just smashed the ceiling down with a hammer...

 

[atm84]

I take it the incoming water pipe was plastic, therefore a main bond wasn't need and Kev was right.

 

[sammyshooter]

Main incoming service can be made of anything you like; but you should still bond the installation, as the internal may be run in copper.

 

[telectrix]

only if the copper is extraneous.
