Mmm pretty sh*t job. But I'd love to see you prove that 20mm untwisted conductors makes any difference whatsoever. Do you understand the concept of electromagnetic interference?

I've had issues with twist rate only when trying to certify something to cat6 specification. Cat5 will usually always pass. To somebody with your level of technical expertise yes the circuit would still work but no I wouldn't be able certify it for the client in order to get paid.

obviously you need to read up. check out the case studies too. I wasn't allowed to let marginal passes through which is why I make every socket termination perfect.

I had a very interesting email from builders wife the other day regrading the NBN.

 

At first they told me it will go in the garage, I was like ok but after some research and talking to you guys I sent the builder a email telling them that I want it in the master walkin.

 

The email back was it needs to go in the garage and because you have changed your mind the electrician will not cover any of the work for the NBN and a extra charge may occur.

 

Good luck I say I'll meet with the electrician when his onsite sometime this week

Depending on what the sparky has already done it may warrant a variation to his scope. If stuff is already sheeted and he already has wiring from a termination point to the garage I wouldnt be moving it for free. If its still early enough its just a case of running running cables elsewhere and perhaps a tiny bit more length id be all "meh sweet as man no biggie"


Be carefull of margins on margins as well, builders are karnts for it on varies. An example a saw recently, change of splashback color, sparkys had a 4 dollar vary per room (apartments) to change the color of the fancy power point which was probably bullsh*t as it was, the builder passed it on as 24 bucks per room to the client...there is like 700 rooms....

That's true, peeling and falling off would almost be guaranteed?
