Lazy Electrician? Nooooo

[Wilko]

Try as I might I just couldn't work out how Plumber got the pipe up through the ceiling and soldered etc without damaging the cable. So I've had to admit the possibility of a lazy Electrician who couldn't be bothered to make their own hole or even clip the cable. Another dream shattered, oh dear!

or did the wet=pants install the cable???

It was the feed to the power shower, so that could be it

That looks like a plumbers after thought, ha

I think it was the householder who did the electrics. Mr. Brown, after it was plumbed in.

Nice stain marking - I suspect someone with an unsteady hand and a biro!

Yes, the combination of the cable, the pipe and the stain made me take a look in the loft. The leak seems to've been resolved, thankfully. Classic perhaps for RCD trips as cable drops down the wall into DP FCU. I'll get mgt agreement to move the cable somewhere a bit more sympathetic

What size cable is it? As looks a bit small for a shower

OP said it was a power shower (as opposed to an instantaneous shower), so it's just running a pump.
