    Loft lights: 2 circuits

    I mean its not wrong. That is how you would do it with ceiling roses, but you have LED battens. (so do the junction in them) Do you really need 2 switches for them? LEDs don't consume much. Be simpler with one switch and just take one lamp feed from the other. The other way to make it really...

    2.5mm can handle 27A. You don’t want a 13A fcu as it will overheat. You could use a 20/30/45A switch if you want. I would. To ensure the fridge can run if there is a Cooker fault. I’d fit a 25A mcb What brand cu is it?

    Help needed with garage electrics

    Being sensible, I would put a 2 way metal CU into the garage. Metal one to future proof. Put it near the ev charger or where cables enter the garage. It must have an RCD. 6A mcb for lights 16 or 20A for sockets. Should you want to use the ev charger in the future you can talk to a spark. But...
