Looks like its not just our trade that can be rough as fook.

Was fixing a galaxy 60 next to this lot this afternoon.

And this is the incoming feed from the street, completely un insulated.

Sorry about the 1st photo I took it in a rush as I didn't want my customer seeing me taking photos of his death trap.

Yep i saw one similar to that in a sawmills place and the board was full of sawdust!

I hope there is a cover for that board.

Reidy might be on to something :)

I doubt it! I got asked to quote for an alarm a few years ago and there was a shiny busbar at waist level in the basement. I said the the guy he needed to sort that out ASAP, never heard
back about the alarm job. Must have touched a nerve (I assume it didn't touch a heart muscle as shop still there 8 years later....)
 
Sawmills are the worst, don't go turning any ceiling heaters on by mistake mind  :-

So, I've decided to take my work back underground.... to stop it falling into the wrong hands

Street incoming cable is fine (Goes in the three phase fuse block before the meter) Looks to me like they were doing work on the board/additions without an isolator and buggered the screw on the henley block cover. 

 

Still, wouldn't go near that with arf's let alone mine.
