[QUOTE="green-hornet, post: 52710, member: 2683"] I agree and understand. The main problem is education of the general public. There is no law against any one doing any kind of electrical work providing it is carried out to the current regulations. This however is not the case with gas, and the majority of the public are aware of this. I would hope that some time in the future electrical installations would be concidered in the same manner. What worried me is an electrical engineer installed a cu in a shed fed from a 10mm swa from a pme and thought I was talking rubbish when I told him how dangerous this could be. I refused to rewire his house with this installed and he got some other part p spark to do it! Trading standards are introducing a safe trader scheme this year which I hope will go some way to inform the general public of the importance of the regulations but will have to wait and see.
