Not with reversed polarity

Wouldn't it?

 

[netblindpaul]

Mind if it was reverse polarity, with the DIY TN-C connection at the board, then the DNO fuse should have gone bang a long time ago, or else the link.

My boss and i see quite a lot of these with no sleaving on cpcs...which tends to follow around the whole install........

Ok ive been shot down with flames but you enlarge the picture that tail is not so distinctively black as the outgoing neutrals

 

[netblindpaul]

rob,
Not shot down in flames, just nicked on the wing mate!
The pic is not very clear I agree.

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

I had to take it in to photoshop to be sure :sunny:

 

[GLENNSPARK]

The badly made off incoming tail in the photo is black.....very poor on the IP n all at the top of the board............

 

[netblindpaul]

All in all we seem to agree it's a rubbish install!

All in all we seem to agree it's a rubbish install!

But what i cant get is WHY the hell would someone add insult to injury by pulling new stuff in to this..?............

 

[netblindpaul]

Because they don't care, or perhaps more worryingly they know no better because they have not been adequately trained...

I dare not say any more!

Reminds me of the typical quality of a early 1980's barrats house, both phase and neutral from the 60A switch fuse to the consumer unit were wired in red.. The temporary fix when I discovered it was to check polarity and then use some black tape...

 

[GLENNSPARK]

Mind you...been at the "joint box" house today (as we have christened it)...lol.....i think at the last count we have had about 20 odd out of there.....a poor install by any standards..........

What you partake in as far as herbal remedies within your own life we don't need to know about! :rofl::tounge_smile:

Where’s the reversed polarity?

Hello

Not sure if covered already but to me, the tail supplying the visible LHS of the main isolator on the old wylex board is....brown...? There are black cables to it's left and it looks brown (tail) to me. I also am assuming the LHS of the DP iso feeds the neutral bar-can't be sure from memory but makes sense.

That's where I see it but am always ready to take a good cuffing for being wrong....
