Coljack, thats why i was asking if it was lead, i couldn't be bothered to look at all the photos as they take forever to load on my fliptop although I didn't moan about it!
BS EN 60309-2.What kind of socket are you planning to install?
Because it's not needed.You haven't mentioned RCD protection (or testing thereof),
You know I am, but in your inane thrashing around to fail and find something real to moan about (but successfully making yourself look childish and stupid) you seem to have forgotten that fact.are you aware of the regulations in BS7671:2008 regarding concealed cables?
No.(Or, like part-p, do you just ignore them?)
Yes and yes.Do you know how to safely and correctly use that test equipment, and is it in cal?
By telling the truth.So, other than lying, how do you plan to deal with any questions about electrical work (or bodging) when you come to sell the house?
Probably won't be having any, but if I do they will be decent ones.Oh, and get some decent tiles.
I'm only guessing, but I think he may have entered a competition somewhere with a prize for the person who can make themselves look the biggest idiot.LoveRocket - What's the problem?
There are, and that was my initial worry.that "conduit" that you've dug up looks like it might be a gas pipe BAS.. ..
are there any gas outlets near where it heads?
Well for this particular socket I wont be. But I will be for part of the run to/from the switch.Are you using steel tube to avoid the need for RCD protection like what I did in my house?
I see no evidence of bodging. There is a failure to notify LABC, which BAS is aware of and it is up to him to face the consequences. No one is denying that.
If you have a geniune point to make, then go for it. If you're just tring to score points, or get a rise out of BAS, then don't.
Never mind - I'm sure you'll come to terms with it.Fair enough, if you are installing to avoid the need for RCD protection, and I am also presently surprised that your test equipment is in cal.
Neither, and the aesthetics are irrelevant, as it won't show.Interesting use of Ceeform, do you often change cookers or is this just a manifestation of your aesthetic preferences?
Ah - the 'b' word again, and still no evidence to justify it.Although you still haven't explained exactly how you will deal with questions your bodging when it comes to time to sell the house.
Given that I won't have bodged it, won't say that I have, and will have an EIC I imagine that the issue of no Building Regulations completion certificate will be a matter of little concern to them. If not then I'll cross that bridge when I come to it.You say you will tell the truth, and how do you expect "I bodged in a new cooker circuit, broke the law by failing to notify the LABC, and thus have no paperwork" will go down with a buyer and their agent?
