Yep.."Oh well" is pronounced Boff !
my ex trading standards neighbour has just had the spur line fitted for the EV car he is waiting to be delivered.The approved sparky ran 2.5mm cable inside 25mm plastic conduit attached to the ceiling from the meter in his garage through a wall ( no conduit on that bit just cable pushed through ) .In the next room the conduit is clipped to the concrete ceiling, there are a few right angled bends.Sparky couldn't be arrised to fit conduit bends, so at each bend the cable is visible, and then it enters another run of conduit.At the outside wall, it exits and goes down to the socket, at that wall again the cable is merely pushed through the hole he drilled in the block wall, but is in conduit ( but not external use grade ) outside down to the socket.It was passed and approved by the subcontractor used by EDF, to "approve" on their behalf. Hérve is happy because he gets the cost of the installation ( govt "grant" ) back ( actually in his case it will be deducted from taxes he should pay ) once it has been passed.Cost €2000.oo, 3 hours work, ( I saw the guy arrive, I saw him leave ) €100.oo worth of "supplies".Cable is going to get a bit warm, even charging a Dacia Spring.
