Splitting tails on crappy old installations.

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?

  • When charging for an minimum of one hour including a call out I don’t mind tagging an additional job on within that time such as replacing a light switch.


    What does annoy me is when I have done a full hour then written up the invoice and taken the payment only to be asked to then of an additional job “ as I’m there”, do suddenly it’s become a hour and a halves work without the customer intending to offer payment for the additional half an hour.


    Regards the original post, adding an additional consumer unit requires all the required protective conductors to be in place, something that some installers don’t seem to realise.
