An electrician's nightmare or what not to do with the wiring: a cheerless photo compilation

Electricians, like everyone else, have dreams. Often these are happy dreams, but sometimes there are nightmares. So what could an electrician have in a nightmare? Let's dream up and at the same time see what ridiculous things people sometimes do with electrical wiring. Do not forget to like and subscribe to the channel - it is useful and interesting with us!

Bugs and unknown devices

This terrible type of adapter for generating electricity from a socket for a light bulb can be attributed to unknown devices. Why this was done and in what conditions it is applied is not clear. But the idea itself is a good one. Here it is necessary, for example, to power the grinder at the facility, but there are no sockets - this is the way out. Although you can carry it with you ...

But if the electrical plug is out of order, it can be assembled with masking tape and two self-tapping screws. The device is extremely dangerous, and its performance is questionable. This fork looks intimidating. If this is seen in a dream, a sharp release of cold sweat is guaranteed.

What to do if the plug is burnt out? The correct answer is to buy a new one and replace the damaged one. But, not everyone thinks and does so. Some, not very knowledgeable people, put various objects instead of fuses. The most popular option is a screwdriver. She has an insulated handle and therefore does not shock. Cutlery is next in popularity - mostly forks. In no case should you do this - this is a direct path to fire!

Electricity and water

If these two elements are combined, then a person, and any other living being among them has no place! Electricians always warn: water is a conductive substance and electrical appliances should be kept away from it. This is an elementary safety technique. What to call adults who do such stupidity, and even boast about it?

Some clever people thought of heating the water in the bathroom with boilers. At the same time, they connect them through ordinary household extension cords. This also applies to the nightmares of an electrician. On average, a boiler consumes one kilowatt of power. There are 10 of them, which means that the total power of this miracle heater is 10 kW. They are connected, as we can see, through tees and an extension cord. One extension cord has a minimum of 5 kilowatts, with a maximum allowable 2.5 kW. No luck wiring!

Grounding and blocking the machine

Almost any electrical appliance requires grounding. But not everyone understands this word correctly. Some, for example, are grounded not through a special circuit, but into a container filled with earth. Yes, such an electrician can only be seen in a terrible dream.

And finally, two more technologies of "brilliant" self-taught. The first does not allow the machine to turn off the power supply, even if the network is overloaded. The "geniuses" in this case blocked the switch. And they found some original way - with the help of paving stones! The second technology allows it to be powered into a power cable. Comments are superfluous here.
