Worst place you've seen a fuseboard / consumer unit..??

[sparkyjohn1]

Was round a job over the weekend,, asked the customer where the consumer unit was,,,,, led me to the cupboard under the stairs, not really a surprise.... but wasn't expecting this,, !! Lol...!!

Worst I've ever seen,,, !!! Although, it's an old Re-wirable Wylex, probably there before the toilet was put in,, so not really the sparkies fault... Plumber should have known better.!! Still worth a chuckle tho...//.

Brings a whole new meaning to locating a C/U in an accessible place.... hmm,,

I've posted it before but this is behind the washing machine after a new kitchen was designed and fitted. Its a mates house and lucky for the plumer and kitchen company it was done several years ago or I would be ripping them a new rectum!

Under the floor of a toilet being converted into a utility room. It's the DB for the flats in the block! They had to cut a hatch in the ceiling below to get access but wouldn't pay for relocating it

Shop fitters are some of the worst for this sort of thing , I had to remove a complete 2M run of racking system once together with all the stuff on the shelves and then the board had been moved by the guy who put the racking in so as he could get a fixing for the support timber and the whole DB was hanging suspended by the cables in mid air ,,,
