This week I am installing a 2 wire fire alarm system and emergency lighting in a property that is going to be used as an HMO, House of multiple occupancy. Over the years I have done a few of these but this one has got to be the most pleasant. The customer has expressed how happy he is with the work and the speed and cleanliness and how the work is not as much as a disruption has he had thought. I so wish all customers were so understanding and appreciative, seem to make all the years of knowledge and experience worthwhile some how!
I also felt I had to post a picture of this old type wooden cable trunking I found under the floors of the property. Thankfully the trunking and the cables inside it have not been in use for years but it had been left under the floors of the property in perfect condition! Amazing how much workmanship went into electrical accessories all them years ago! Even though it was not seen. I wonder how much it would cost for a rewire if things were made to that standard today?
