Hi, my first fix wiring on a new build has been completed for some time now and I am happy with everything, my electrician seems very "by the book" and was often pointing out bits here and there that some people often do and get away with when wiring but he would not do incase of inspection or just not safe.
However I had another tradesman doing some work this week and he commented on how he thought it was unusual that in pretty much every light switch and electrical socket the conduit ends above the metal back box and only the wires enter the box while he said electricians in other houses he has worked on go out of their way even using different shaped conduit to make sure the conduit enters the back box. He also mentioned some wires (only in one or two places) are run without conduit. I was aware of this, it was done as there was just no space to put extra wires that I asked for after a lot of wiring was already done. Similar for the back boxes I have a lot of wires entering many boxes and conduit is too wide I think to fit into the opening in most cases?
Is this something to be concerned about or just opinion from the other tradesman (who has no real experience in wiring).
