Splitting tails on crappy old installations.

justinneedham
Who uses the "Split the tails and ignore the faults" approach in domestic works? ( -Fondly used by many PV installers). 


-Where do you believe your responsibility ends, and how does the argument go if you might nonetheless be re-connecting tails to a potentially dangerous existing installation?

    Justin I flatly refuse to do a cheap job. I will walk away if I can not do a good safe professional job. Recently a forum contributor said that a clear conscience is a soft pillow. A potential customer of mine wanted blue "caravan" sockets to supply swimming pool-side pumps and other outdoor electrical equipment, but he would NOT have R.C.D.s as they trip off and are a nuisance he said. I walked away.


    I take pride in achieving a good quality safe and reliable installation or alteration. Some people will spend lots of dosh on luxuries but scrimp on essentials like safe electrics. They are idiots and fools. I avoid them.
