Immersion heater wiring was a mess . Additionally BG spurs are crap! change a lot these due to weak insides, no brand is made like it used to be.. Makes me laugh the amount of hoops electricians and other trades have to jump through! Only to suffer consequences of ungoverned materials with the BS ( British standard ) stamp on them.

Bit of testing today for a change. At least it’s a new install.
Landlords looking for EICRS please get in touch! Best to keep on top of it the way things are these days.

Darren’s Find of the day in Chawton. Low voltage, in fire rated cans. Installed in thatch / plastered ceilings. Looks like it was actually on fire for a bit. Miracle.
This was a DIY special.
Sad to say I spent my apprenticeship putting these in. Madness. If you haven’t. You should be updating your lights to LED- low power- low heat.

Revisited a build today we were involved in nearly 5 years ago. Thinking back was pretty much a twelve month project. Stressful but the finished result was all worth it. Still looks as good now as when we did handover. Becksteddle house.

At last! In plane English, this will abolish 10-14 day electrical courses, this is long overdue! And should once again keep the standards up! And keep the real electricians busy.

For all those that carried out four year apprenticeships and all the other add ons. Hold your heads high. GREAT NEWS!
