Hi
Just a quick post as im a bit confused about this site, I love the fact that there are some very bright electricians on here that can give very good advise. And if advise can be given to make things safer that is great.
But when we read posts and we are concerned that the person carrying out the work is not up to the job ( competent) then I think we have a right as time served electricians to point out that they get someone in to help them,
I understand that the public have a right to free friendly advice.
But surely should we encourage diy'ers to do work with no knowledge of the risks involved. I did a 4 year apprenticeship and still need to read up and seek advice so that I carry out work safely in accordance with the latest regs.
Is this site all for safe practice or more interested in the amount of hits from customers.
