Post photos of electrical blunders made by electricians or those that actually think they are an electrician, ie. homeowner, GC, etc. Anyone can post photos, please do not use the name of the blunderer.

This GC loves doing his own work on this commercial property in the basement. I had to stand on the plastic cover of the sump pump in order to access this panel. It was nice to know he was the vice-president of the local homebuilders association at the time.

Nice one Chris. I have to find my photos of a main panel inside the kitchen cabinets. They had to keep the cover off and remove cans and shelves in order to get to it. It was owned by a judge.
