[QUOTE="Doc Hudson, post: 460237, member: 1607"] The question is, was it an imperial bubble or a metric bubble that was needed. How old is the spirit level? I've heard some say you can fit a metric bubble into an imperial level but not vice-versa, personally I would not be happy using the wrong size bubble in my spirit level. Hence I always purchase levels that come with a pack of spare bubbles, just in case one bursts if I drop it! (I saw a distribution board the other day and I am convinced they used the wrong bubble or an un-calibrated plumb-bob, as it was way out of line). Anyone else seen the guidance that from August 2019 all plumb-bobs used during assessments must have twine measured by the meter not the yard and the weight must be double knot locked onto the twine. Health and safety are banning the use of single knot as an acceptable securing method. You can no longer get away with the sort of stuff Deke and Kerching got away with in their younger days, more changes yet again! Doc H. [/QUOTE]
