Thanks for the likes, it means a lot from your respected peers Pete will tell you best thing I did was leave my old company and do this type of work.
 
Before and after, and yes, I know a couple of the conduits down to light switch and socket aren't plumb, but I used the old PVC trunk as a template....won't do that again, winds me up everytime I look at it!

NDG,did you use the jobby from the extractor to plaster the ceiling above?

(Es una broma!)
You mean like a scissor lift !! Wouldn't want to give it a try at £1700 for the extractor !

The lower ceiling is all new boards, for some reason the owner of the property didn't paint that bit, not sure why.

Little picture of a small LewedenRCBO board I did the other day, on a top floor flat.

The 16mm SWA is glanded in a 4x4 metal enclosure which is recessed behind the DB, which has a fly lead to my earth bar.
Plastic water and gas main.

The board is mounted on 12mm ply as the builders haven't plastered it yet !( i know their choice)

Another pic of a Wylex DB I did last year.

Nothing as lavish as the spectacular Sintra job but here's my little effort from today, a nice little job wiring out a new [replacement] detached garage. We reused the existing 10mm 2 core SWA supply and the 6mm earth in the board may not have been that colour originally, didn't have any in the van so you sometimes have to improvise... :)

Nice job nothing wrong with the earth. It looks a substantial garage is it designed for building a dormer office ect above at a later date?
 
I don't think there's any intention to build above it Anthony, it's a chap aged 71 who's always wanted a big garage,his wife said he'll be out there a lot pottering about and she'll have a bit of peace.:) A really nice couple and they were delighted with the job.
 
Those black line conductors on the Wagos need red sleeving :p
 
They have brown,as do the grey cores !:) Brand new 3 core and earths, 1 to each 2 way switch the switched live/neutral to the lights goes back to the CU as well, it was the most economical way to wire it. :)
 
Doh, I thought they were red and black cables. I jointed an old swa to new T&E today. Sleeved the blue of the swa black and connected to the blue of the new cable:D

It was looking at the engineered joists.
