Have just been to a job to move a few lights, sockets and install a feed for a new hob. Its in an extension thats 4 years old so new colours. Im not perfect but the electrician that did it didnt bother with grommets, or with cable zones they go everywhere, mixed cable colours (its obvious he ran out of new so used old in places) didnt connect terminals properly so after a hard day at that i get home and my plumber who is currently doing my bathroom wired the 5A shower pump into the 20A double pole switch in the airing cupboard (formerly for the immersion) and doesnt bother with the earth. Why do we bother with part P?
