Hi guys im a new suscriber and i hope you can answer my questions. I recently went out to a church to fix their alarm. Whilst i was in the attic i
realised that probably 90% of the wiring was chewed by a squirrell. Each electrical wire is completely chewed through exposing all 3 copper cores. I informed the person from the church and told them it was dangerous but they have not done anything about it. The reason i know this is i was back out doing some more work on the alarm. I asked if they were going to sort it but they said thery were not too bothered.
Is this very dangerous due to arcing etc?
I ask as i do not want the church to burn down especially as i was the last person in doing work.
I am thinking of putting an advisory note on my paperwork to say i have seen and told them of the problem.
Am i being overdramatic or should this be rectified urgently. I dont want to look like an idiot by telling them the install should be condemned!
thanks for your help.
