It's a funny old life.

A holiday chalet family asked the site manager why there was a red “FAIL, DO NOT USE” sticker on their bedroom infra red wall heater.

He said that the electrician had found a chalet fault whilst it was undergoing an inspection and test.

They said that they had not called upon an electrician. What was going on?

I had carried out the inspection and test after the manager had given me the chalet number and key for the chalet.

I had found that the wall heater was not earthed. 

I had also found that a ring final circuit had an end to end C.P.C. reading of 16 Ohms.

The site manager had given me the wrong chalet to test and the wrong key. He had mixed two up.

But if he hadn't  done that the faults would still be there unfound and unreported.

I come across much D.I.Y. dodgy work.

It's a funny old life innit?

  • My wife was not impressed when I put a do not use sticker on our kettle after I had been checking my testers in our kitchen, it failed testing with both PAT testers, my insulation and installation testers. After failing testing with four separate testers I decided it had earnt a badge of shame.
