Cable stays exactly where you left it. Why electricians need the Cableboss app There is no easy way to secure cables between joists. No simple way to log and record the location of cables. Cables can - and do - get moved or lost, resulting in wasted time and money. Most electricians make three visits to fit downlights in case they have to cut holes and carry out remedial works prior to plastering. Benefit of the Cableboss app Fix - Position cables accurately. Record — Log positions on the Cableboss app. Recover - Use the app, find the cables and fit lights in two visits, safe in the knowledge that the cables stay exactly where you left them! Saves time, money and improves efficiency. How the app works Create a site - This is the home address you are fitting lights/cables. Create a room - This is the specific rooms you are laying cables. Add pictures - Add pictures and notes on the Cableboss app. Share - Share pictures with notes and descriptions with anyone. Repeat - Repeat the action and save yourself a whole lot of time and money.
