just remeber we are talking about an 18 month old kid...who doesnt know about the danger of electricity...and also remeber the owner has just moved in so he doesnt know about all the little tricks the electrical inspectors can get away with...so he doesnt know that the wires sticking out in his garden are actually live...he also doesnt realise how dangerous one part of his installation is either which i forgot to mention...where they have switched off a circuit breaker and told the new owner as the previous owner was leaving...he mentioned that the new owner that he shouldnt switch on the one circuit breaker which was down because there is a fault on the circuit.
yip i know you are saying why did i get involved in this k*k again because it is a friend who needed some advice.
the new owner went to a lot of trouble to make sure his old house was safe and now he moves into a new house and has a list a page long og repairs...that why i tell people if you buy a house ge tthe installation checked by your own electrician...from next year i will offer this service to everyone not only my customers....i will just come in...do a visual inspection and advise if i feel the installation has been checked and if the COC is in fact valid or if a full investigation is required...for a small fee of around R500
