(Three) phased upgrade

Electricians turned up this morning to start a complete re-installation of the electrical systems in the building. The current layout consists of an ancient main switch feeding an equally ancient distribution board which feeds domestic fuse boards tastefully attached to the walls in positions which are both unsightly and inaccessible.

New main switches (4 in total) are being installed and big 3 phase cables are being run to strategic locations (mainly around the old kitchen) where new distribution boards will be installed. Lots of hammering banging and sawing, but all the boards were replaced before the guests arrived back.

No joiners though. That's annoying because they said they would definitely be here today and their non-appearance is holding everything up. D**** is trying to get another firm to carry out the work instead.

Brownie points to the maker of the dishwasher (see yesterday's post) as the required spare part arrived this morning and the machine is working again:-)
