This sounds like most of them, just pull random information from nowhere without explanation or comprehension of the facts.
2007 we had a full house rewire after we'd basically rebuilt it from the ground up. Guy who wired it came recommended by many folk, once he was gone and fixed some of his issues, building controller was in to sign a few things off (major job), got stuck into wiring and locations of things and basically threw a hissy fit. Rightly so as it turned out, the electrician was on his last year of work before retiring and just seemed to deliberately fuck everything up to spite everyone. Most of the issues were wrong sized cabling, incomplete earths in various places, the consumer unit was out of date/ undersized and one other thing, too long ago to rememeber. But had trusted him as good rep + seemed to know the facts*
*Maybe from a few decades prior, but not current knowledge anymore.

Thanks. I think this guy has just riled me up enough already that I'm sensitive to anything he says. And because so much of my job is consuming and regurgitating technical specifications in a way that others can understand, I hate it when someone just says, "because regs" without explaining why. Makes me think they don't actually understand the regs themselves if they can't explain them or know where they might not apply.
