There had been a fire at the property prior to this, so there was emphasis on fitting smoke alarms. New to the market is the AICO multisensor – http://www.aico.co.uk/Ei2110e.html The perfect solution for an open plan kitchen / living room space. Thanks to the guys at Independant Electrical Huddersfield- http://www.independentelectrical.com/ for letting me in on that and for supplying all the materials for this job, including the new consumer unit as seen above. Normally i tend to fit wylex however these MK’s are on special offer and they are every bit as good if not better than a wylex!

Are your electrics safe? What the eye can’t see the heart can’t grieve

This was a find during a recent electrical installation condition report – formerly known as a periodic inspection report. The live supply cable has signs of overheating – most likely down to a loose connection.

Same job – looks like the work of a ‘handyman’ certainly not an electrician. Handymen may be able to turn their hand to most things. If you are having any kind of electrical work done – even changing a light fitting such as this, make sure that it’s done by a registered electrician.

As it happens the reason I was asked to test this house was because there had been a fire, and although there was damage to some of the cables from the fire, I found a multitude of serious faults in other places which were all down to poor workmanship, along with complete ignorance and lack of knowledge to electrical safety.

THE 18TH EDITION

It looks to me that most of it’s been wrote already – to tie in with EU standards, perhaps so that it applies to all members of the EU enabling them to work anywhere within the EU under the same qualification and regs? I guess they weren’t banking on a brexit.

Testimonials

“Robin helped design a new lighting arrangement, provided technical advice (which was easily understood) and went onto do the work on the days he said he would. The standard of work was very good and the price represented excellent overall value for money” D. Singh – Birkby

“We recently used Appleby Electrical for a new kitchen we had fitted I can’t praise Rob who completed all the work to a very high standard of workmanship and his knowledge is second to none we were so happy with his work that we have used him several times since we have also recommend him to friends and family and wouldn’t use anyone else. It’s nice to finally get a workman you can trust that will advise you honestly 😃”M. Hutchinson – Quarmby

‘I’m always happy with the service received from Appleby Electrical (Robin). They are flexible, friendly and responsive to a wide range of requests. Good value for a job thoroughly done, thank you!’

A. Haines – Fenay Bridge

We were very pleased that you were able to come and inspect our
electrics so promptly,and we felt reassured by the professional and
careful survey you carried out,at what was a very stressful time for
us, having moved into our new to us property to be confronted by a less
than satisfactory set up from a safety point of view.We were very happy with the quotes you gave us and the fact that you
were able to start work so promptly. It has to be said that the
circumstances under which you were working were not the best! as the
snow and sub zero temperatures we were experiencing did not make life
easy for you, but you battled your way to get to us when others wouldn’t
have bothered, and despite the freezing temperatures inside the house
you always remained focused and cheerful and ensured that everything was made safe and compliant to regulations, which given the dangerous wiring found gave us peace of mind to know that we were safe when using the electrics.We were also impressed by the way in which you carried out the rewiring,and chasing out,you were sympathetic to the repairs we would have to make to walls etc by creating the minimum of damage whilst carrying out the remedial work and this did not go unnoticed.We would have no hesitation in recommending you to anyone and indeed
have been able to pass your details on to friends.
Thank you again for a good job well done, and we will have no
hesitation in getting back to you for any future work we may want doing
as we continue to work on the house. Regards – J. and W. Wilson – Almondbury

One of the best electricians around efficient, reasonable charges, and I would readily recommend him and his work to anyone will not do a job if he deems it unnecessary .
