When they say failed PAT.... they mean they double booked it out. 😝

Great videos As always, keep them coming

Fused connection unit for the boiler may be elsewhere. When this happens we use a 3 pole isolator by the boiler as local isolation for the gas servicing, so the stat return is isolated too.

whats the best make for low profile screwless double socket? plus old wires are pinched where previously screwed into socket, do i need to cut to fresh metal?

[Jailbreaker]

I love watching your videos absolutely amazing...

I am not a fan of ring final circuits myself, I am going to fit a 32 amp 4mm Radial circuit in the kitchen, would that be something you would consider on future jobs. I hope to get my Metabo wall chaser and extractor up and running this next week. I thought about hiring one out, but i like to have my own tools as I do like to look after them and ready them for the next job. Looking forward to seeing this one through, thanks for sharing.

quite an interesting layout upstairs with bathub/toilet/shower in 3 different rooms. i'd knock through at least one of those walls.

Mate the radial ideas are so good, such a better way to run socket circuits

[peterbollard]

Hi when do you decide that the house needs Rewiring or do you do it when your customer request it as I find that thermoplastic cables can still be in good condition up to 50 years old after a visual inspection and insulation resistance test so I usually Upgrade the Switchboard to Circuit Breakers and RCD's and upgrade the Earth Cable and New Earth a good New Year.

Nice to see you get mucky. Always entertaining. I can do these with my eyes closed now lol

[gmeadowcroft]

Can’t wait to see the finished article, don’t ever recall you doing a re-wire on YouTube

[phillipgwynne]

Glad your doing this in parts, because not seen many full rewires done in length and detail, including planning. From a non electrician’s point of view, I can see this being good for Oscar, if you get chance to say your changing this part of a circuit And so on. Some of the other spark channels, I think they’ve already planned cable runs and when they talk about them, my head wants to explode. Not gonna name names, but there’s one that your having a lot of banter with 😆

When I worked for the education as a IT Tech in the CDT Department the tiles were asbestos workers were in there and I told them so they put the correct kit on. Then am told I should not of told them, telling me if they become ill, they could come back to us. I then told them again it is and it is now up to them. I then worked removing the stuff we had full kit looked like space men. Nasty stuff when moved broken bit like MDF may be in 20 or so years we will have the same issue with MDF.

Does that double socket to the right above the hob comply to Regs ?

[NickW]

Good video as always. If I were rewiring I’d encourage the client to have a light with a battery backup (the BT14 is around £50) by the consumer unit so in a power failure or if the lighting breaker trips they are not hunting round for a torch. Anyone offer this?

And mains battery back smoke alarms to be installed boss 😂 and 90% of the time quote per point always works out to get the day rate I want, plus allows on profit at the end just have to move quicker to make more.

[tww]

I always work to 2hrs labour per point and a % on material and operation costs 👍

I have just bought a 1960s house in Croydon, 3 story townhouse. I will also need to assume asbestos in the ceilings. Seems to be a skim of hard smooth concrete on the walls over the brickwork. Not plaster, could that contain also contain the 'a' word! The house you are working looks slightly later like 1970s? Do you do any jobs in my area?

[nitosandrius]

How much usually does it cost for the electrical work? Thanks
