    John is far too polite in describing other trades messing with any electrical installation work.
    Why are detailed circuit drawings, and labelling of circuit functions, not a requirement, particularly for control systems?
    In commercial/industrial installations it is essential.

  • @davideyres955
    @davideyres955 2 года назад

    You need to look for a cable tracer from the IT supplies. Sends a tone down the wires and the receiver picks up and amplifies the tone dependant on proximity to the cable. David Savery showed one in a video. We used to use them to trace back cables in IT wiring.
    Also like you I hate wiring done badly. Currently dealing with wiring to the wiring centre that’s at the back of the cupboard behind the hot water tank. Power to the supplies is a single radial but someone decided to use filler to “glue” it to the inside of the plasterboard.
    Just wish they designed houses to have proper risers with proper accessible cable runs.

    Great video thanks guys, really liking how you two work together, quick question for you if I may. I recenlty accidentialy drilled into a the ring main, to fix this I added two maintenance free JBs under the floor and fixed to a joist with new cables to reconnect the ring. (I went for two JBs to avoid having to double up the connections). Would this be within regs? The JBs are rated at 32a each and the load for the repair is heavy (tumble drier and washing machine / Microwave). I would have loved to pull fresh cable instead of using JBs but pulling up the floor was not an option.

    The 120mm discs are perfect for chipboard flooring . Gives great access and if you use the right cutter it gives a groove (10mm ) so the discs sit flush .. better than ripping up flooring just drill a few of them if needed

    If I was there I’n that situation with the missing cpc I would have put a cable locator croc lead on the cpc at one end and go and find where the cpc stops giving a magnetic field and there’s going to be the fault however it will only work if the cpc is completely disconnected like it was in your situation but if it’s connected but your looking for a poor connection it won’t find it that way because it will still have some kind of continuity

    That foam above the old fused switch looked like it was doing airtightness work. If you just cut it out and yanked the wires through without replacing/resealing then that's why electricians shouldn't be allowed to mess with buildings - they ruin the airtightness. It's fair to say that plumbers aren't much better.
