    Thank goodness for metal detectors. When you open a socket outlet and there is no earth wire, its time to start tapping and scanning walls.

    Heres mine.
    Used to work for thsi client about 4 years ago and their wiring was pretty perfect.
    We added a few bits an pieces in thier factory and then they got a millwright in.

    We were called to issue a check some items and CoC some things that were done by an "electrician" who had gone AWOL

    This was just the attempt they had made at one of the small DB's. We found over 10 issues with one socket circuit in a small office

    We walked. Ain't got time for this kind of kak.
