2.5mm twin & earth cable - round vs flat

I wonder if the OP is not local, i.e. from a jurisdiction where round fixed wiring cable is in common use, and is therefore thinking of that.
His location is shown as Essex. Maybe that's the reason.. :lol:
True :-) However, as I said, one cannot totally discount the possibility that I think was being suggested - i.e. that the OP may have been 'from' some country where round cable fixed wiring was common, even though now in Essex!

Kind Regards, John
 
Oh, so electricity in Essex now? Blimey!
Not necessarily. The idea might be to get wiring installed in anticipation of electricity perhaps coming to the area at some point in the future :-)

Mind you, having said that, I believe that one of the very earliest UK nuclear power stations (Bradwell, construction started in late 1950s) was in Essex - so maybe they've had lots of electricity for quite some time!

Kind Regards, John

Is Essex in Italy?
Lost me there john
Marconi was Italian, and his early experiments with wireless transmission/radio were all in Italy. In that sense, radio had certainly been 'born' before he came to the UK!
We have signs saying "Birthplace of radio" near the old chelmsford Marconi site apparently pre 1900
I think there are such signs/plaques all over the place! There is certainly one similar to what you describe on the wall of the BT Centre in London. I've also come across ones in Wales and the West Country. I think they are commemorating all sorts of different interpretations/versions of "birthplace of radio"!

Kind Regards, John
