On Tuesday 17th Jan 2012, Mark Adams from Hull was prosecuted by East Riding of Yorkshire Council and was found guilty by Beverley Magistrates Court of three breaches of the Building Regulations relating to electrical work. He was fined a total of £1000 and ordered to pay £600 costs.
During a routine inspection by an East Riding building control officer, it was discovered that the work carried out by Adams was dangerous and required immediate action to make it safe for the occupant of the domestic property in Willerby.
Mr Adams, trading as A+M Electrical, was found guilty of failing to comply with the Building Regulations by not providing an earth to the electrical system which made it unsafe and failing to notify the Authority of the commencement and completion of the work.
