Do u not think that the test date sticker should still be on boards??

[@Dailymailnewz]

I started a new job a few days ago, guess what I found? I thought the previouse jobs were funny because of what I found as contractor. Three live wires in a ceiling rose but no neutal at all ha ha. Then the good man who is supposed to be electrical man on that site tried to install an led emergency light in the bath in the same room, but had connected all the black wires to the neutral including the emergency feed wire that feed the batteries ha ha ha. And on the two live wires that were permanent in the ceiling apart from the main live wire, it had two blue tages or sleeving on it and the same was with the other one in the bath. Nothing worked so he called me, ha ha ha ha. I mean I can go on and on and tell you so many funny things it makes MR BEAN FILM IN THE REAL WORLD. In the same work place did a visual inspectoin on emergency lights, all the batteries are dead on- around 400 lights are like that, filled the paper work- and guess the lady incharge said? How do you know it failed emergency test or not you have to do 3 hourse emergency test, told her you do not do three hourse emergency test on dead batteries ha ha ha. THAT MEANS for the last two years or so people were simplying filling the monthly emergency test as passed until all the batteries went dead. 400 Batteries dead in the emergency lights imagine that.... I got another 3 building to do.... Good luck to me...

Having done a fair bit of amateur wiring, I have to say the worst wiring I've seen was the stuff left over from the 80's council contractors that upgraded our 1950's house from aluminium to copper. I have to leave the building when electricians visit because there's only so much tutting I can tutting and sucking of air through teeth I can tolerate. I think it's fair to say there isn't a lot of wiring in our house that is to regulation, although to be fair the regulations change on a weekly basis anyway.

[@audigex]

I think this probably leads to a good idea for a "Here's how to do DIY right" playlist... tell us how not to do things, how to do things properly, and point out where you *definitely* need an electrician, and where you *probably* want one, and where you can do things for yourself if you're comfortable enough to do so

Not sure if anyone has said it already but that bus bar that you use on the lower side of the breakers can be modified by breaking of the teeth that line up with the neutral pole. Then use the normal cable entry in the neutral to run a neutral wire to the neutral bus for that RCD. Make sure you insert the bus bar so the teeth are at the back and the angle comes forward to the front of the breaker

I love Hager but they need to come out with a single module rcbo/afdd breaker, I think your solution is the best solution, I think I might have put it on a 40A RCBO but still all protected.. They have had a while to come out with one and with other manufacturers coming out with them its unusual for Hager to be behind the game..

[@DTech101]

Hager do have a single module RCBO not sure at AFDD’s though but at 100 a pop I can’t see much people spec’ing it, their SPD is a two module device which is pretty much the same as all the others as it doesn’t need and MCB connected to it.

[@steve11211]

@@DTech101 New Regs mean properties that are deemed high risk will have to have socket outlets covered by AFDD's but agree that its unlikely that anyone will choose until the price point comes down, but it was not that long ago you could have said the same about RCBO's... AFDD's need something like 2A in which to trip so with led lighting its unlikely they will ever be required for lighting as that would be pointless.. But sockets and shower and cooker will probably be mandatory in the next edition of the regs as long as prices come down a bit.. Hopefully Hager will have caught up by then and got a single module AFDD

[@rpvitiello]

It’s very interesting how different this is done than North America. Here each circuit has its own combination GFCI/AFCI (RCD/AFDD) breaker. The bus bars are built into the breaker box (consumer unit). Things are also broken down into many many more individual lower amp circuits. That whole mess in the attic (loft) would all come to the consumer unit as individual circuits.

I'm from Belgium and I can tell you that our country is quite behind on safety. First time I saw an AFDD, never heard of it before and Belgium's codebook doesn't mention it as far as I can tell (a quick search doesn't show anything at least). Pretty much two RCCB's are needed: 300mA before all breakers and an extra 30mA for "wet" rooms (e.g. bathroom) Not much else for safety. Now imagine bringing a very old house with crumbly wiring up to code, you don't have to redo the wiring to add earth. Mainly document the wires and where everything is located

I fitted an outside socket today using a fused spur. I turned off the rcb labelled “living room main” and began and my work. When installing the new wiring I contacted the new cables with the old and it caused the main switch to turn off. Why would this be? Found it kinda weird considering I had turned the rcb off.

[@kal9001]

Most breakers only switch the live off. The earth wire should always be 0 volts, with very little deviation. But neutral, depending on how long the wire run is, and what other appliances you have, can have stray voltages on it, when you put a meter on it, you may see 4, 5, even 10VAC and not think much of it. But that can easily push 25ma through earth and trip the RCD if they touch. So most likely, when wiring stuff up, you had let neutral and earth touch, and in that moment +25mA was seen by the RCD and pop. I had the same issues fitting some lights in a garage, that was a long fused spur off a kitchen ring. It ran through an isolator switch which was turned off, but of course it only switched the live. Due to high load in the kitchen at the time there was some a few volts on the neutral when I got the meter on it.

[@glennlockey1012]

Yep, kal has got it covered but be careful of 'borrowed' neutrals or even lives sitting on ring older ring main circuits, you turn off the rcd but the circuit is tapped into another circuit keeping it live. Switch off and check for voltage... stay safe

[@kal9001]

@@glennlockey1012 Indeed, In this case, and likely OP's case it's not inherently an issue. But it does expose one glaring problem for those who are paying attention. If you were holding a neural conductor on your ring main, it's near 0VAC so safe right... sure. But what if the neural back at the fuse box becomes disconnected somehow. there is no longer a path pulling neutral to 0VAC, and the neutral will rise to 120/240 (wherever you live) The same can happen if you have a very heavy load somewhere, particularly if the neutral has a bad higher resistance connection. Your heavy load will be filling up the neutral quicker than it can empty through your distribution board, so you get voltage on the neutral, potentially dangerous. If someone screwed up and were to put a breaker on neutral instead of live... oh boy...

I'm not an electrician just an observer. Part of the reason is that they've added home automation devices (I could see "LightwaveRF" as one of them in the video) and adding them onto plug sockets avoids the need for the work to be compliant to electrical regulations as it's then not classed as fixed wiring. It also allows them to easily remove it and revert to the previous fixed wiring if they leave the house just by switching the plugs around etc (common on rented houses I would assume). It's a shame that they did so much wrong here, as much of the stuff appears well mounted and labelled, they've just made questionable choices with the type of cable chosen, containment, and some of the connections (lack of earths for example).
