Cheers for the update and walkthrough! Sorry to hear about the van break in. keep up the uploads lad.

Get to the point for Christ sake man.

Re time index 40 mins. Customers EICR trust. Usually not much of that! In my experience electricians always want to put in a new consumer unit even though the BS standards are not retrospective. Had an electrician who identified no RCD on lights, coded it C2 mandatory (rather than C3 advisory which would be how Electrical Safety First - Best Practice Guide would have coded it) and then wanted to charge £950! Well outside the upper limit for this work. Needless to say I got someone cheaper to do the work. Electricians stop ripping us off by claiming unnecessary work. Haven't decided whether to give this person a review yet which is the only penalty I can exact for this sort of behaviour.

Just a quick question, regarding the "cooker ignition switch + extractor hood switch" why does both switches contain 3 x T&E Cables?

An EICR should be carried out before a board change anyway, it's recommended in the guidelines

Are you a scouser?

🙂👍So glad I’m getting new cable before I have my bathroom remodel. My old shower start tripping RCD so replaced shower the problem is it’s still tripping . It looks like it’s a rewire. Upgrade to 10 mm . Not sure how complex but it obviously needs doing. Hope I get a quality job like you’ve done. I came here so I knew what to expect with a rewire. I’m just hoping there’s no trunking visible otherwise it will be a hallway re plaster as well😂 good excuse to redecorate. Great job thanks for shedding some light on been a good sparky and what to look out for . I used to love watching my dad work rewiring houses. Brings back happy memories helping squeeze through tiny holes in the floor and between floor board’s. He’s retired now but still enjoys mending anything. Great skill been a sparky .

So if you have installed a new consumer unit and it's tripping, then we might have to spend hundreds of pounds extra? OK got it.

Was that the bus bar and the tail from the meter into the the same incomer switch terminal?

He sound like Jamie Charragher.

2:05 that sir is very true and annoys the shot out of me. And why I have unsubbed from a number of sparky channels. Let's continue and see if you get my sub..

you spoke for more than half the length of the video, and to be honest i havent heard a word you have said.. the rest was ok though

Looks good mate 👍 trying to work out if that's my old high school or not, it looks awfully familiar.

Nice job 👍🏻

You have a socket just for your wood shaping machine 10.53

Seen on Instagram you've been featuring fusebox boards, they look like great boards. Do you fit them over eris now?

Tidy upgrade! I have a 8.5kw shower, 6mm cable - short run and the spark fitted a 50amp dp isolation switch is that OK? As the switch gets very warm when used

Can you do a eicr testing video plzz

Nice video! Nice to see a sparkie youtuber in my neck of the woods

Is David price an electrician?

Hope you carry these on in the new year

could listen to you all day --very proffessional..

Crackin Job. And cracking workmanship.. question re the emergency light. How is this maintained and serviced to cycle the battery? I fitted one on a job previously and organised a routine 6month check...

Spot on that mate.. really impressive set up. Hope your well mate 👍

Top Job Bud👌 Very Tidy Installation! How come 5 years on test and not 10 on EIC or is it Let? Great upload as always though

Cracking job m8

Nice tidy job and great advice to fit an emergency light near the consumer unit.

Hi, great video, can you please confirm the name of the downlighting units that you fitted? Thanks a lot

I'm a new subscriber and this was awesome thank you please do as many as these as you can I learnt more from this video than a year in college real life work. 👍🏻

Great video . Use lewden all the time 👍

Do I smell something ? A open PC with a fault present between the property & sub but not in the property . May trip a rcd but the rcd doesn't open the protected conductor . SO THE RCD IS JUST A FAULT INDICATOR NOT PROTECTION ! All the p c ( grounds ) will have the fault voltage on them with all the current the fault can pass ! Just food for thought .

Great video. You need to look at getting a metermade tool for your tails. Got one last year and works really well. www.millsltd.com/metermade-25-smart-meter-cable-stripping-tool.html

Heat is not an issue with compact rcbo. considering 99% of the rcbo arent heavly load even a 40a is not loaded for a long enough time for heat to be a issue, as you stated there all BS rated and designed with dissipating heat considered. i know its all down to what you been taught, but i was taught and we teach that whenever you connect a fuse board you should always have enough slack to enable a circuit to be connected from one end of board and easily moved to other end, all your circuit appear to have no slack, IMOH

Why do people still use those horrendous meter glands? The wiska grommet glands are the bolux

Regarding drilling out a 32mm hole to a 38mm hole you can use a 32mm male bush with a lockring and use a 38mm cutter to drill through.

A word of advice try and mark the cables so that other electricians can fault if there is an issue.

Nice review great spark.

Hi there, the isolating switch between the meter and the dist boards should be in a metal encloser as part of the 18th edition regs amendment 3.

Are you using type Ac or type A breakers

, its a recommendation to fit SPD's in domestic ,not a necssesity , manufactures have invested vast sums of money and need to push the industry to fit them , you might as well say why not fit AFCD's right now, within urban areas hardly need the IMO, been doing this for 30 years and never been a problem without them

Another Tony bellend who loves his own voice 🤪

Is that a gap between the the metal blanks? Those labels look top 👍

Brilliant vlog chap 👍 Hope your staying safe in Wales 😂 Fuses Box cheap for a reason. I hope the world changes and values non Chinese equipment. I don’t want to support the capital of Corona 19 Virus.

Fair play being honest about the consumer unit covers not fitting. I’ve done that a few times on jobs ha ha

The sync seems to be off.

Video of one of the grid switch install would be good. Don’t see many vids on them. 👍

The only thing that I would say is that you need to keep the tails as short as possible when using a SPD. Other than that, I'd say I would be well happy as a customer if that was the standard of work done at my house.

I don't think any CU comes with a 40mm knockout, I use a cone cutter to enlarge the 32mm hole to a 40mm hole.

Great vid mate I do the same with the meter tails putting them in first, I would highly recommend using flexi meter tails 10x easier 👍🏻

I'm too busy to watch this mate at the moment, but it's cheered me up to be looking forward to it tomorrow! I'm too busy trying to organise my new marketing push after LEAVING checkatrade which i plan to do in October cos they've gone ballistic with their prices and pissed me off. I''ve done 2 HAGER stacked fuseboards, very costly, the last one came to over a Grand for the install. Look forward to watching this tomorrow before I'm off up to Newcastle to collect ebay scaffolding - from the South Coast! I used to live by the way, In coburg dock on a little boat, and I sang every day in the choir at the wigwam. Fond memories, even of being mugged - Scousers are so polite, even when they're mugging you!! Love you man. x ruclips.net/video/oDgXd3JU0rU/видео.html (A LOOK BACK AT MY YEAR)
