you might have been lucky enough, to get an apprenticeship and train at others expense , unfortunately not everyone has that luxury these days and someone trying to better him or her self by asking for help should be supported, not ridiculed by self important idiots like you, glad you got everything handed to you on a plate and to be honest reading some of your comments you were not paying attention , you know fec
Grade F for that bolony
 
Ones for a boiler will have a 3A fuse so virtually any cable will be satisfactory.

Ones for a boiler should have a 3A fuse but someone may have changed the fuse and fitted a 13 amp instead. ( how many people have spare 3 amp fuses in the house ). Hence cable that will survive a short overload current while the 13 amp fuse melts should be considered.
 
Studying until 21 is not having anything handed to me on a plate.
really you studied till you were 21 you should be running the country, I did a 4 year apprenticeship with BG, 3 as a service engineer then 1 as a Technician, I have a degree in mechanical engineering , a degree in off shore employment law, and a degree in business management, and if this lad wants any advice that I can pass on freely ,then I will do so more than happily,the whole structure has changed and I applaud this lad for asking for advice , instead of being like you, and think you know everything, I have worked in many countries and with many boiler manufactures at R&D stages, and I have forgotten more than you will ever know , yet you try to bully and belittle a lad asking for advice

You'd better rewire the boiler as well then; someone might use a nail.
 
Does BG ( British Gas ? ) consider a Technician needs more training than an engineer ?
Not sure how the structure is now , but when I was there , you did an apprenticeship (3 years) and you became a service engineer, if you were asked you could extend another year and become a Tech, was a big decision as you were still a student and lost a lot of money from just going straight on the tools
 
Having lived and worked for several years in Germany where the title Herr Ingenieur (Engineer) is protected I have an opinion about the way the title Engineer is used in the UK
