They’ll do what they always do mate......”wasnt like that when I left!”........I’d be doubtful if the person signing it off even saw it, misplaced trust in his “mate”....and the person installing obviously couldn’t care less cos he ain’t putting his name to paper......sounds like a right pair of clowns ??
 
Those WAGO boxes are such a faff, aren’t they..

Like @Baddegg says, they’ll try to weasel out... “the box has been taken off” and point the finger at you.
Stand your ground, and make sure all your work is up to scratch, or they’ll find something to discredit you.

if they ever actually turn up
 
That really does look a brown ball of mess.

Could at least of used Sellotape! :tearsofjoy:
the proper way would have been Grey gaffer tape :kissingsmiling:

I actually went to a job today where an old outside floodlight was faulty and tripping the house rcd When it rained.
so I took the light down (customer hasn’t purchased a new one yet) so I fitted a black wiska box on the wall over the cable and quickly put cables in wagos.
the old chap watched me the entire time and was well impressed i went to the trouble of screwing a box to the house For the cables.
he said ‘ I thought you would just cut the cable and rap It up in tape’

:)
