I have recently had my house rewired but as we are renovating the kitchen, there is still some minor electrical work to be completed. I would like to add a socket on a spur from a JB and replace the pendant lights with 240v halogen down lights.
My question regarding Part P regs is due to the layout of our rooms. We have no running water ( sink ) in the kitchen as this is located in a seperate utility room. Does the fact that we have food preparation facilities in the kitchen mean that the room is still subject to the special regs?
I have read in the NIC pocket guide that although there is a sink in the utility room this does not mean it is automatically classed as a hazardous area.
Could some one please help clarrify this for me
Thanks in advance for your help.
