I worked in the Middle East in the 1970s and one builing I worked on had been rewired quickly, the spark had taken a hammer to windows and carefully smashed a hole in the glass just big enough for a cable to go through. Some of the cables were T&E others were 4core 16mm. I rewired lots but preferred to drill through a stone wall rather than use the window route. Drilling through 1200mm stone walls was not easy. Standing on a step ladder holing a kango drill with extension bits was probably not up to modern H&S standards. I seemed to always be covered in bruises because the bit often jammed and the kango turned and hit me.
It is all so different away from our good safe UK rules and regulations. (Is different better or worse? Now that is another question)
