[QUOTE="phil d, post: 444067, member: 27126"] there's a lad near me set himself up as a builder, proper bodge merchant, anyway I knew him through my son and one day he came to see me about a job he'd done (pre part P days) anyway he'd converted part of this garage into a sort of flat for this customer so her eldest son could have his own space. The whole thing was a lash up, it came to paying and the customer wanted a cert for the wiring, so he got me to go round, trying the old pals act. It was horrendous, a 2.5 swa from a 32A mcb in the CU, no glands, through a hole drilled in a window frame, clipped along a fence into a battered old proteous 2 way hanging from a nail in the garage bit. The cables were slung over the rafters, and went down the walls at 45 degrees to the sockets, needless to say there were no grommets or earth sleeving. The loop for the lights was done with bits of terminal block, not even taped! I walked away laughing and shaking my head, then the guy gets all arsey because I won't do him a ticket. [/QUOTE]
