‼️This video is difficult to watch, but it highlights a serious issue — electrical safety.
A young boy was electrocuted in a pub where the electrical installation was outdated and electrical work had been carried out by someone without the proper qualifications.
Too often people choose the cheaper option or get DIY to sort out electrical work without understanding the risks. Electrical work — even minor work — must be properly tested and certified by a qualified electrician.
Recently I carried out an EICR where I found multiple safety issues. The customer asked if I could still issue a satisfactory report despite knowing about the problems. I refused and issued an Unsatisfactory EICR, listing the defects that must be rectified within 28 calendar days or sooner if there is higher risk.
Electrical safety is not just paperwork — it protects lives.
Please think carefully before allowing unqualified people to carry out electrical work. Saving money should never come before safety.
Thank you to for sharing this devastating story and for reminding everyone that safety comes first. ‼️
