Things you see but cant believe!!

Can you spot the work of an idiot.

 

[malcolmsanford]

It's the old colour coding light green for neutral, used all the time back in when no one gave a ---- about colours.

or

I DIY TN-C system

 

[SPARTYKUS]

Line supplying neutral bar?

 

[Deleted member 26818]

I think you might want to adjust your colour balance.
Those neutral conductors look brown instead of black.

 

[LlandrilloSpark]

A link from Earth bar to Neutral bar in green 6mm?

A link from Earth bar to Neutral bar in green 6mm?

beautiful work, whoever did that is a credit to our profession. Hope you're picking up the sarcasm guys

 

[Richard Burns]

A categoric YES I think.

Hey it is all fine, there are no RCDs so it wont matter! (oops!)
Pity he ran out of green and yellow sleeving and forgot about correct termination with no copper showing!
I like what I assume is the main earth going round the CU to the left.

I don't like the fact that not only has the order of the conductors in the neutral bar been interupted, but also the link will be interupted when the main switch is open.
Should have taken the link to the feed side of the main switch.

 

[Goody]

Green lead links the neutral bar and the earth bar, probably an attempt to make it a TN-C-S system, I guess.

 

[Knobhead]

and forgot about correct termination with no copper showing!

I would defy you or anyone else to terminate in one of those boards without any conductive part showing. Look at the terminal shrouding.
They were what we had available at the time.
MCB’s? Nobody trusted those foreign things in their house! I knew they were the way forward but after my mate’s house caught fire I didn’t trust them.

 

[Darkwood]

It all looks fine to me:nuke:..... il tidy and correct it when i get paid :icon1:

 

[Adam W]

It's all good and well nitpicking, but the question is "does it work?"

 

[SPARTYKUS]

Not with reversed polarity

 

[GLENNSPARK]

The worst thing about it n all is theres recent work gone on here (new colours but STILL no sleaving) whoever attempted to pull that new cable in to that shower of **** whants stopping as they should have either condemned it or sorted it all out first..........

 

[Guest123]

Not fed off a genny is it???:ninja:

 

[Knobhead]

Not with reversed polarity

Where’s the reversed polarity?

 

[robskiing]

Where’s the reversed polarity?

Have a close look at the mains tails that looks like brown live conductor fed into the neutral terminal of which them old wylex fuseboards are not DP isolated i know that because i once got a nasty belt isolating a shower switch some clown reversed polarity on the fuseboard

 

[Knobhead]

Wylex boards were DP isolated, I’ve stripped enough of them to know.
If you can’t tell the difference between brown and black then I’d start getting worried.

 

[netblindpaul]

robskiing,
I would say that the L/H sheathed tail is black, but my eyes and this computer do leave a lot to be desired, plus the white balance is all to pot on the pic, probably an old tungsten lamp to blame there!

 

[netblindpaul]

Tony beat me to it, looks like his peepers are not as bad as he makes out
