Discuss Urgent: 60 amp main cut out fuse required in the UK Electrical Forum area at ElectriciansForums.net

That could have been a possibility but you know what they say about assuming things like that, but I found the fault. I think telling a customer the fuse was probably warn call the supplier and going home would look very rouge trader.

Had this been not so close to Christmas it could have been left to try but I know like leaving a job not knowing the outcome. As I would have to return for no cost.

Which in this case I would have had to

Are you really a donut. It has nothing to do with being a rogue trader. There are clearly 2 issues, a fault in the customers property, which you can work on and the main fuse/cut-out blowing that the DNO should attend too.

This thread is blinding!
 
The two things were related, I personally wouldn't be happy till I saw the customer up and running.

If I had missed something I would have to return, a 60 mile round trip which would have been Christmas Eve evening or even Christmas Day. For free
 
i've got to hand it to Mr. Turnbull , he's made a robust and staunch defence of his business practices in the face of alot of flack over the pages of this thread and hats off to him.
its no bloody concern of anyone else as to how he earns a living , if i could earn £100 an hour at xmas or any other time of year i'd take it and anyone who didnt like it can jog the f*** on.
some of the posters on here would be better off time travelling back to 1950's soviet moscow where the state can decide how much we all earn.

edit : i think i've kicked off on the wrong thread - oops
:-D

get a grip of yoursen Biff and wake up!!
what the hell do you think we`v got now eh?.....more covert n stealthy in practice...but its the end result that counts.....
lol...lol....
 
I have no concern how people earn there money along as they are not trying to ripoff me or anyone else I know.

But he came on here asking about doing something illegal, the problem could have been solved alot quicker though as I have pointed out previously.
 
Yep , wrong thread , should have been the "call-out" debate.
meh , i stand by my comments lol.

if a mod could oblige and move my post #94 when convienient.
 
Thanks biff55

I wasn't asking for anything illegal or how to do anything illegal. Possession of a 60a fuse isn't yet illegal.

I in my wisdom though someone on here
May be in possession of one locally.

And as for ripping people off. I went to a customer who knew exactly what they were been charged. That amount was between them and the people they called.

Everyone has a opinion about what I could have done.

I did what was needed.

Customer sorted

Minimum fuss (apart from you lot lol)

Anyway can we close this thread

I came on here as I find it a very useful forum, having downloaded the app it is easy to access.

I hope I've not rubbed anyone up the wrong way.

I know you don't approve of third party organisations, I was just trying to give you some information from someone who knows how they operate. I must have done 3 jobs for them this year, and maybe 15-20 over the last 3 years.



Hope you all had a good Christmas and a happy new year.

I'm sorry DillB, anyone being ripped of just isn't on in my book.

OK it's the season of goodwill etc, so I'll restrain from calling you anything more than a donut. Messin' with the DNO fuse is not for you to do.

60 mile round trip - boo,hoo; get a grip, I do 200 mile round trips in my area every week. And it still ain't any excuse for you touching the DNO fuse.
Yes the two things might be related, but you have stepped over the mark in touching the main fuse, but I guess you just can't see that, having read the previous pages.
