oh yet another one of those days eh , job im working on kitchen fitter / odd job man wired in the hob and oven hob is 8.7kw so 2.5 ok look closely at the live yes it is touching the cpc , if you look you'll see it wont work as its been connected to an unused terminal in on a big lable was the cable size type and of course the connections and then the oven well beggars belief , and of course one for the plumbers how not to plumb in a washing machine water feed yes its wedged between the waste and the the wall oh and have a look how the oven fits you can see from the pics is the 2 clamps for the hob at the top of the oven , why do we bother ehhuw owen 011.jpg
 
Looks like something from Pro Electrician magazine (that one you get free in the wholesalers)

I dont think this type of work will ever be eradicated
 
My sympathy always goes to the customer as they have to pay the cowboys AND then pay to put it right!! 9 times out of ten, the cowboys get away while the victim is left out of pocket!!
 
yeah. but did you know that they have different front covers. like the major wholesalers have copies with their ads on the front. they're becoming collectors items, like meerkats/ oops that reminds me to get a new PL quote so i can get baby oleg.
