    Many locations of of incoming electrical supplies in older UK homes were in place long before fitted kitchens etc were the norm hence this is sometimes the reason for the obscure positioning of consumer units. Keep up the good work and stay safe.

    Mind-blowing to see a consumer hidden away under something or behind something. We normally have a dedicated space for them near the front door (Sweden). In some older houses they can be in some interesting places, like basements and whatnot.

    • @simongreenidge6454
      @simongreenidge6454 2 года назад +2

      Two things to keep in mind: 1. The houses that have the consumer unit or breaker box in a sensible position are not that old and don't yet need the units replaced nor other major electrical work. 2. Most of the UK's housing stock (and other infrastructure) was not destroyed in WWII, this means that today we live with the legacy of very old buildings and their ancient wiring. Much of the old infrastructure in continental Europe was obliterated and as a result is relatively new - having been rebuild in the decades following the war.

    • @maxking3
      @maxking3 2 года назад +1

      @@simongreenidge6454 I’d rather say, it is because Germany already had a standards body in 1893, along with a well developed apprenticeships & trade associations, pretty much developing out of the medieval guild system.
      On the other hand English electicians have pretty much made things up along the way until they were facing EU regulations in the 70s (in fact meeting a lot of the VDE norms that had been around for ages on the continent.)
      You hardly ever see anything as hopeless and dodgy even in 100y old German houses.

    Cory.,
    7 years of Art school.!! Does that include Kindergarden ?. I think the 7 years of Improv. school are paying off though. That was the funniest video . nice way to finish out the day.
    Good work on that horrible consumer unit change out. I think myself it should be red tagged for inaccessability. Just because it is where it is should not make it okay. Are there any building codes that neeed to be followed there or building inspectors with city, county or national standards. I think it is an insurance liability issue. Just because it can be done does not mean you should do it. Remember last hands on the work carries all the faults of what has gone before.That attic looked like a mess electrically.
    you all pulled it out of the toilet though and seem to be gelling as a team. No tats though. Jordan are you watching this!!!

    • @trojanhawrs4613
      @trojanhawrs4613 2 года назад +4
