Hi all. New here, but seems like a good place to ask.
Technically, my expertise is in small circuits rather than ring mains and 240v.
Our house is a mess. We bought it last year. It's old and we've found there are lots of hidden foibles and we're going to need to get them fixed when we fit the new kitchen. The house is 60 years old and has had one owner.
I'm not looking to do this myself, but want to get an idea of the options etc. before we bring someone in.
Here's what currently exists (I know - there are other horrors too - the previous occupant loved a daisy-chain)
I want to add a lighting circuit too and an extra spur on the main ring main. I'm guessing this would be acceptable? Do I need to create the 2nd ring main?
Or can it simply be done as a radial?
If anyone could give me even a rough estimate of what this might cost too, I'd appreciate so that I know what to expect.
