The batten lamp holder...cracked, and no screws so must be held on with paint

 

[magnoliafan89]

Well he wasnt too happy with me ripping it out nor his other handy work.
As that was actually dogged off an inside socket and fed his garage and his garden which was under plastic roofing all of which id left (just ripped out the supply to it) that he'll only re do it. What do we know though hey?

If you look at the bottom block you can actually see how the cables have been painted as it goes in

If he wasn't happy with you ripping it out then who gave you permission to remove it?

Must admit I was thinking that. Would have thought the most you could do would be to isolate the circuit, issue the EICR and tell customer it would be dangerous to liven it up again.

Quite simply his landlord.... my employer sends me in and if they wire in any electrics from ours then it gets disconnected.

So ‘yours’ was the old blue painted stuff in the old colours and he’s added the new bit of T&E that can be seen coming out of the choc block? Is this a new landlord?

Who’s is the double socket?

 

[Boing89]

Has my dad got a secret second house somewhere because that’s the kind of thing he would do? I remember watching him cut an earth wire out on a metal light fitting because “it doesn’t need it, it works anyway”.

hang. On a minute and the land lord told you to disconnect it ,so he must have had the house before he put a tenent in knowing the electrics were dodgy
and he wants you to sort it out .
