Upgrading an Original FuseBoard-Electrician 

ru-vid.com Link to Monday Club

11:32 CJR won’t be happy you’ve nicked his ladder 🤣

Perfect case for using Flexi 👍

Nice work guys. Love those CU stickers

Loving the content guys! Keep up the hard work! Hopefully you get a break soon 😁

Love that all your board stickers were on one sheet, I'm always having to look for all mine 🙁

When you tell Adam to get off his phone are you being serious or joking I can never tell 😂

Excellent work and thanks for sharing this with us take care

Yeah, just found the channel. love it. As a mainly industral sparks, it's great to see how the domestic/commercial installers do a cracking install. Also makes think "give me a 240mm over running a 1.5mm through a loft space any day". Just one thing, you promised a link to the podcast in the description below.........

Nice little tribute to PB 👍

Fusebox was like a glove 👌🏼

Good man for not insisting on more work, an rcd and modern mcbs with some decent bonding makes that system so much safer.

awesome job 😎

When you price for a rewire do you include the redecorating etc and then sub that part out ?

How did you dispose of the asbestos flash guards???

EICR's do they need doing on House Sales? I keep reading websites and getting mixed results.

Once I see pot carriers I make sure I don't disturb them, cut the lot out and double bag it, also if there is asbestos board that potentially can be disturbed PVA is the way forward.

Nice job 👍

Yeah, just found the channel. love it.

Nice job as always Nick under the circumstances! Adam nice clipping of the Main gas bond!

6:55 woohoo we gonna get some bendy bundy 😎

What size of p clips did you use for a bonding? If you can send me a link. Thanks

Nick, what do you use to clarify the codes you give? I'm just getting into eicrs and it seems like a mine field 😂

If that meter is on a hanging screw then it’s gonna be a ballache changing it coz you can’t lift it up to remove it. Love the vids btw.

Nice bro.

Hey Nick and Adam still really good vids but too short, more footage please.

Where you lads from? I want to get electrician apprenticeship but can’t get it so what can I do to get my chances of getting an apprenticeship higher

You good job.

I like Monday Club but sometimes it can be a grind to get through. It really needs some polish and pre-planning to make it more professional. Taking some time to discuss before hand what you want to cover and set rough times to how long you'll talk about each will help massive. (You could even use breaks in future to add adverts). Example, the latest episode - in just the first alone15mins you covered, Ev chargers, Tools of the week, Health and safety at work, Training Apprentices and Kim coming to work for you. None of it with any real substance. You could of easily done a really interesting 10-15mins on Marks EV stuff if you'd thought about some questions to ask before hand (like the Electrical OM stuff). Mark is a super knowledgeable guy and probably over half your audience are domestic sparks and don't do any EV stuff or are thinking of getting into it and would find it interesting. Kims Social Housing was really good stuff and is the type of stuff you should lead with. You also need Sam to have a post-it on his monitor saying 'Be Professional'. 1000s of people do watch it from different ages and every week someone has to reel him in. You aren't going to attract bigger sponsors if you are talking about stealing everything from site or coverings peoples stuff in paint or sabotaging coffee or making sure pictures are of proper tools . It needs to be more professional. He always seems to skip through topics when he gets bored or thinks of something else he wants to talk about. Also, what you might class as 'banter' between friends can come off D*ckish to strangers, especially to the older crowd (like always calling Amy the apprentice or taking the mick out of you being a domestic spark when you are both doing amazingly well for yourselves) It's a good niche you're trying to fill, god know electricians do a lot of driving to listen to it. It's just you are like 30 episodes in and the format isn't much different to episode 1. it just needs some polish and pre-planning to it to keep the conversation flowing and interesting. You'll probably find it a lot easier to do as well. Sorry, I didn't mean it to be a giant rant.

Is that ceiling above the mains asbestos

Gas bond connection made within 600mm of the gas meter?

5:05 What are all the little round balls behind the top wires of the fuse box and also the silver ones just to the left of the mains?

Hey Bundy, apprentice here. When you have a loose live on the ring circuit which you then put into a 20a breaker is that a suitable fix? From my view you still have two loose lives in the ring which could potentially be dangerous right?

Who done ur stickers plz, post us details

Another great vid nick just on a safe note don’t leave that lighter on your dash and learn the hard way like I did

Running bonding round the outside of the house, I have a question: Is there anything wrong with using 10mm black and oversleeving at the terminations with g/y heatshrink? I can;'t see anything in BS7671 to prohibit it, and it would look neater than g/y in my opinion?

Did you change the front grille on your van Nick

Nice work guys. I’ve been on an electrical course the last few weeks where one of the required books is the Napit On Site Solutions - good to see your name on the list of contributors Nick 👍

6.50 - the flexicon returns lol

Plz show me how to install UK fuse box

Bundy Flexi :)

Asbestos sheet at the top of that cupboard too

Hi, sent you a message recently on your recommendations of smoke alarms, no response, Are you not allowed to indorse any products unless you get paid?

I don't like that Ground wire run at all, is that really allowed? So vulnerable to damage which would leave just the gas pipe as protection. I would have thought that a well placed Ground Rod sunk close by into the soil would better? When we did rewires, I admit many years ago, we used triple Ground i.e. Water, Incoming power jacket and a Ground Rod. We were told then, never to use Gas pipes. How times change :-)

The advert before this video was about using copper pipes instead of plastic and stared @pbplumer.

Just a thought, not a critisism, is that PVC insulation UV rated for external use, and does it really matter ? Is there a regulation covering it's use externally and not in containment? I have no idea myself as it's a long time since I worked as a spark, last I did was 17th edition. Iremember being supplied with some co-ax cable many years ago and the supplier supplied duct grade and it was being used externally and within two years the PVC insulation was crarking and exposing the copper braid due to UV exposure. The site was closing down at some point so the longevity did not matter at that point. Exposed copper can to a degree protect itself onece exposed and I have seen bare copper pyro that has been 'weathered' and still functioning 50 years later ! Does anyone here know of any regulation covering this subject ?

You better start showing off the Bosch gear, Artisan are after your gig 🙂

N8ce work Adam & Nick. Good, if short, video. Does Adam get a clothing allowance for working in the wet? He should! 😂 LOL. But a "young'un" swearing? Unheard of!😨 Not really. Good to see another on site video.

All them macds will give adam some extra weight

Do you ever have people that are very upset that they fail their EICR? Do you have any stories?

How old are you Bundy?I am 22 years old!

Why didn't Adam do the board

Typical 60's house, lighting accessories were mainly plastic, late 60's fluorescent fittings became popular so they ran a separate earth to them and if a bathroom light combined heater 500 Watts was specified they would earth that too, yep 500watts off the lights, even worse it was excepted to gain an earth from the copper cold water main, thank god for the 15th edition wiring regulations never mind our standards today, 😀

Great job as always guys. But you may want to pop back and move the earth clamp to within 600mm of the meter before someone spots it 🙈

You really do try and do a proper job which is great to see but why do you install one of the cheapest consumer units you can get?

Yo yo yo

I never p clip bonding ..Conduit all the way for me too exposed needs mechanical protection on low level external cable

2nd

13th yay

I don’t know why you spoil the job by using cheep consumer units. I get fed up going to jobs only to find a cheap consumer unit fitted. The next electrician comes along ,can’t easily source a mcb or rcbo of the same make so sticks any make in. In a way you can’t blame them although that’s against regs. A couple weeks ago I had a Hagar mcb fail. That’s rare in its self . But I had one on the shelf but if I didn’t my wholesaler would have one for me delivered the next day . Not oh we don’t keep them.Or we can get one in 10 days but there will also be a handling charge. Also In 5 years time you might have the same problem as the company might not be in business or your wholesaler no longer stocks them. Just my thinking

Has someone punched Adam's right eye. It looks like he has a huge swelling above his right eye. I hope he's o.k.
