Just wondering who I can complain to, besides the delivery company who wire in my cooker.
I had a new cooker delivered, which they wired in for me. I was shown it all working and signed off the paper work. Whilst I was having a play with my new toy, I noticed a screw on the floor. I picked it up and noticed it was one of the terminal screws at the wall box, where the cooker in wired into the mains.
Immediately concerned, I moved the cooker out. As I moved out the cooker, I noticed the cord grip was on the floor, along with the earth wiring off cut.
Unscrewing the cover, I saw the the screw I had found on the floor was the earth terminal screw and no earth connection had been made.
I contacted the delivery company and made it clear that I was not impressed. I emailed them photographs and they offered to send someone out to rewire it. Told them no thanks and did it myself.
The cooker was through EON Energy fund, however, just because I did not pay for it, does not make it right that it is wired lethally. What concerns me even more, is that if it happened to me (and I do have some clue on electrics and wiring) what would have happened to someone who was not as clued up.
EON Energy fund were not really interested, they said they would just put it down as feedback.
