Agreed. It's like sticking a Christmas tree up and putting lots of presents under it in March. Hey everyone come check out what presents you have coming up in 9 months time.

I think they would. If the thing is 95% done why not have a look at it. But if that last 5% includes critical safety stuff then you have to delay opening. Its a shame but there is zero excuse for opening if people might be at risk in an emergency.
Everything we can see from the photos and vids is that the place could host 60k watching a game of footy. But if something went wrong and we didnt have every possible system in place to sort that out it would be horrendous. We all love spurs but there is no excuse to risk somebodys health just to watch football. Bit of patience and we are golden. ?

Amazon security kit $149. Weatherproof as well!

One camera each stand, and bosh, done deal! That's security taken care of. Time to play!
Or maybe Levy is feeling the strain on the purse strings

I remember seeing, on here, a copy of an advert for specialist electricians for a 3 month contract at the stadium, just after the safety systems failed, and it was for an immediate start. I can't remember if it was for 50 or 500, but I can't believe that the wires still require pulling through at least 2 months after. It seems to my mind, albeit without experience in construction, that the cables laying around may be the ones that have been taken out, not thise needing installing!

Anyone got a picture of these cables?
Cables that need installing come on drums not like an unravelled ball of string lol.
And you sure as shit dont unravel it off the drum and leave it laying on the floor before installing it lol.
That said you wouldn't leave a load of cables pulled out laying on the floor either as its a trip hazard.
So, if they are on drums then they are going in or whats left from whats already been installed. If the cable is on the floor then its been ripped out

Could it not be rolled back onto a drum in the hopes of shifting it to recoup some of the loss?Anyone got a picture of these cables?

Doubtful, if it's been cut its effectively useless to anyone else.
Plus the cable itself is relatively cheap, the labour to install it is what costs.

No because it will be damaged. Would you want your fire alarm system installed with 2nd hand cable?
It'll only be small lengths of cable between each detector anyway. If its stuff thats been stripped out that is.
As I've said before I find it incredibly hard to believe that new cable was required throughout. The only reason you would do that is if the wrong type of cable was used in the first place, highly unlikely, or it had an insufficent number of conductors (wires) in it which again would be incompetance on a massive level. I suspect it was either an insufficent number of detectors/call points (again, huge level of incompetance at design level if thats the case. Not like you design a fire alarm system on an install of this scale lightly is it?) or the detectors have actually been wired up incorrectly by sparks on site which is believable. Hope one day we find out. Someone cataclysmically fked up one way or another.

I was wondering if they'd run spurs off of the loop, which you can do with Gent systems, but not with any other addressable systems I know of, that would explain why such a large amount of rewiring would be required.
