Discuss wiring up a new circuit board in a workshop in the Electrical Forum Canada area at ElectriciansForums.net

Richard,

The work that you wish to carry out on your home IS notfiable under Part P of the building regulations.

Alongside that, the type of work you are doing is something that requires a lot of careful consideration with regards to a safety.

The questions you raised are a little concerning. One that is particularly worrying is where to connect the cable at the house end. (Did i read, directly into the red main switch?). and a few members have recommended you to contact a local competent electrician who would be able to advise you correctly after having seen whats required.

And i respectfully ask that any member who does not wish to assist, to move on to the next thread.

Thank you Jason for your reply. I assaume that you are the admin that i contaatced ???. if so i would appreciate it if you could kindly delete this thread as i asked previously if that is possible as i do not want anymore notification from it. I must say that i am disappointed with the response from several members. The approach that alot of you had was very arrogant and uncalled for. A simple nudge in the right direction was all that was needed> After the advice that i recieved from a electrician to wire it up how i did can you not see why i have given up and asked people on here who i assumed would help. Guess its too much to ask these days. Thank you once again to the minority that have offered constructive advice and in the correct way. Please delete thread. Many thanks Richard
 
I think the nudge in the right direction was pretty apparent after about 3 posts, when you were told to contact a qualified electrician.

That is fair enough but as i have said there was no need for the hostility and attitude that came with that nudge in the right direction in my opinion. Also do you think i trust many electricians at the moment after i was told to wire the consumer unit up as i mentioned by a qualified electrician. I dont think so !!!
 
if you were told wrong in the first place then i would question whether the electrician who told you the wrong advice is qualified . surely not from the same regs. as i've got. i think any hostility you seem to have had from forum members stems from the fact that you don't seem to have heeded the good advice given in the first 2 or 3 posts. i'm sure that if i went on the law society's forum and suggested i defended myself on a manslaughter charge, i'd get some pretty short sharp replies.
