I think you'll find that in every trade not just ours.

Had a slightly embarassing incident like that a while back where the local councils "head electrical engineer" attended when we had erroneous tripping of what had been considered to be merely an isolator. He brought the schematics and I immediately saw there was a remote load sensor and trip coil. I pointed this out and he just looked at the drawings and mumbled something about not being able to read them. Since it was in our best interests to keep on the good side of that department, I just laughed and said "Yeah, sometimes I struggle a bit myself." and it instantly defused the situation. Then I found the control module, downloaded it's manual from the 'net and adjusted it's parameters to more accurately reflect the installation.
