Horror story forum (with pictures) ??

[Holdyerplums]

Hows about a forum where we can post photo's & descriptions of horrendous installations we have come accross. We all have phones with cameras in them now - shouldn't be too difficult, only thing is - we mustn't identify the customer I guess...

Regards - Alex.

I've got plenty of horror pictures, but they probably wouldn't make sense to guys in the UK. I'll post one anyhow. The first is my work, the second is some slob's work:

More pictures of terrible breaker boxes (consumer units, to you all):

Have you actually SEEN any of my work?

Hows this, a slightly overloaded incomer - yes that is molten bitumen but not to worry, they have thoughtfully cladded the wall it is mounted on with asbestos....

I'd rather think it's a steam line, but I'm not sure. That picture's got some age on it by now.

No, it's pretty much pointless and not otherwise required. It might "pretty up" the inside of the panel, but it does nothing to enhance the overall safety of the installation otherwise.
