Historical British Educational Film. Mummy and Daughter Change a Fuse Wire.

A delightful old film. How times have changed.

    As the customers will tell you, they have not had any problems with their fuse board despite it being over fifty years old.


    However the simple truth is in many cases I am the first electrician to enter them homes for thirty years or more. 


    I don't always do the work that has been requested, there are times when you realise the installation is too dangerous to alter or extend.


    Adding RCD protection to all or part of the installation is usually a long overdue upgrade 


    The typical UK domestic electrical installation is typically badly installed with dreadful DIY alterations and additions, as well as being way behind current standards.
