mr sociable , If you cant hear the tone on the bt . Its either mis-routed or the pair is lying dead in a joint somewhere . In that case put a tone on the BT and see if it you can hear it in the Cabinet . Ive cleared hundreds of faults this way .....
i know you might be joking (or not) but at BT/Openreach do they not expect you to move the job to later in the day and attempt it again if you use the no access excuse? what if customer phones and says they are home but nobody turned up? is BT/Openreach really that easy to work for? At VM we are expected to move mountains to satisfy the customer so trying to get out of a difficult job better have a good reason lol.
@@TH-camSupportTeams No joke, been doing it for years off and on to make my stats look good. I know it was the wrong thing to do but I am now a manager so it was worth it! Keep up the good work guys and lets get this fiber rolled out like fury. Onwards and upwards. Lets all work as a team.
You think thats alot? You should see it now. This video was before tetra was brought in. Now instead of the rope tied down the middle of the ladder, there is webbing straps that go round the ladder and pole and hold the ladder solid. Also there's now a rope that goes up the middle of the ladder which the engineer is attached to by a rope grab so if he was to slip from the ladder, he won't hit the ground. In this video there's nothing preventing the engineer from falling from the ladder and potentially severely injuring or killing himself.
@@vgovger4373 not really about regulations. Its about keeping engineers safe. A fall from just 1 or 2 meters can have devastating injuries. If an engineer slips or something happens to him and is injured and off work then that costs the company alot of money in time lost, compensation and potentially prosecution.
@@vgovger4373 there's a difference between hurting yourself on your own time and equipment, and on a companies time and equipment. When you're on company time and company supplied equipment, they're the ones that are responsible for your health and wellbeing and are liable for any accidents. If you haven't had that sense of them looking out for your welfare where you work then you don't have a very good employer.
So affffta the intrveeW I wus like I wanna be an engineer. (Any one ever think Openreach should recruit for the army and not the other way round? Bullet catcher)
wish someone would just tell BT to stop putting the fucking cables in the ground and just do it on poles saves so much money and time. fuel, materials etc its just a no brainer 1-10gigbit/s speeds possible for much cheaper than they say but nope, lets just wait about 9 years for planning permission, dig up a fucking road and leave it shut for about 3 weeks, then only fibre to the cabinet anyway and still use the shit old copper to the gaffs, sort ur shit out bt doing my ed in cant upload fuck all
you do realise the network is mostly UG and SOMETIMES fed off overhead/external DP's...more times than not the fault will be in a box in the middle of the road going towards the DP [POLE]
The amount a grief we Americans receive when Europeans comment about how some of our phone-lines and electric supply lines are distributed on overhead lines would make one believe there are no overhead distribution wires anywhere in Europe, and how superior their systems are because of this. This footage proves this is not the case!
I see a lot of overhead cables over here in the UK, I would say in the the main cities and newer areas it's done by underground cables like where I am now, but in the older areas its still overhead, certainly in the residential zones. Guessing its the same with you guys, not like everything's going to be digital / change location overnight is it! We're a tiny island compared to the US so if we haven't been able to do it all yet how could we expect it from you! 😂
nah. Id go to the DP and listen for a cpi tone on the UG feed. If not present, I'd look at prints, take my d side range, find a pair and push it through. Then I'd finish at the pole. Why test from the pole? Useless apprentices...
Just nick a worker, at least you know it's getting back ;) But yeah, he probably wouldn't need to climb the pole at all if he could find his dis a box nearby. Of course, he might not be ug, and he was going strictly by the book given he was on tv.
I agree about checking for CPI first. But why then waste time in the cab when the DP will likely need climbing anyway. Records are not always correct. Climb DP, find longest pair, intervene UG if doesnt reach cab. No faff.

Wow😂

@@undavybe Another happy customer LOL

Future managers....I’ve seen the come and go...
Boy that's a lot of safety rigging and equipment.

@@marcus2535 ....this is the problem when government regulations get out of control.

@@marcus2535 why go outside at all. We might get hurt, the government should regulate that as well.

yeah, if before was a line present he should check at the bottom of the pole.

Its probably just for the video, would be boring if he just went to the cab...
