I don’t think anyone was suggesting it was in breach or even dangerous.Enclosed within the rose and accessible. While not the most elegant of solutions, were any regulations breached?
but you have to admit it was a sh!t job.

Don't think Wago's where available when the red and black T&E was installed, but obviously worked on since then, the drop to the light fitting is so short they could have used two blue cables instead of a bit of T&E, keeping the earth.I don’t think anyone was suggesting it was in breach or even dangerous.

Perhaps insufficient terminals in the replacement light, unlike a rose.No, I was just amused at why they’d added in the additional cable and connector blocks. I’m guessing a different light was up there at one point given the cut in the plasterboard too.
Did two of these recently. Amazing they're all stamped with thag "game changing" UK CA mark. The ones I did were the best part of £300, had those stupid connectors, were designed as Class 2 (somehow) and obviously had no way of connecting 3 plate wiring or even anywhere to park the earth.You often see this where people have tried to fit an Ikea or John Lewis light that comes with a tiny crappy connector block just big enough to accept 1 x 1mm cable in each connector

If one were to be ultra-pedantic (not that any of us ever do that of course) then the bit arrowed should be sleeved with LED tape lights that alternate between brown and red.Enclosed within the rose and accessible. While not the most elegant of solutions, were any regulations breached?
Ho do ou remove those fuse guards? only ones I have seen like that pull straight out or they are held in by a clip and a ph1 screwThicko's don't know how to get to a fuse terminal in an old MEM Exel DB.
RFC needed isolating.
Three phase supply installed, by them, from right hand side fuses but had to do a bit of circuit shuffling. RFC moved to top left to accommodate. All red fuse guards broken off to get at the terms.
Obviously incapable of working out how to remove them.
No sign of any alterations to schedule.
PS. Not the first time I've come across this, by the way.
