Confessions of an Electrician...

Lisa Miles

So while we’ve not been able to log into the community (you can do so now if you didn’t already know) I’ve been keeping myself out of mischief Blush by going through some of the discussion topics on the old Wiring Regs forum and came across this one: Walking off site where some of you were sharing stories about your experiences with client's pets while on the job. 


So I thought it would be a bit of fun to ask you to share some of your funny/bizarre or just weird stories (keeping it relatively clean and protecting the privacy of others please!) from any jobs you’ve been on or done.


… And I’ll send some swag to the author of the story that gets voted the ‘Most helpful/liked’ from the community so don't forget to hit that 'Good Answer' link on any that make you chuckle! (Log in required)

    What about regulation 554.3.3, though to be fair I don't know how long that has been in place, so it may not have been there in 1980. Also this is applicable to "Water heaters having immersed and uninsulated heating elements" so if the heating elements are insulated only 554.2.1 applies.

    Thanks, Alasdair. We are talking about insulated elements here. For the benefit of those of us that do not have ready access to the Wiring Regulations, could you quote the text of 554.2.1 please? As you say, this may not have been there in the Regulations current at 1980.
