yea I know, but my reconning is that any safety improvements are better than absolutely NONE in operation at all, and it's at my domestic home, so i am the "client" as well, please re-assure you all if this was a client then this Forum would be acadamic, I'd charge for my assessment and...

I know very well R2, Ze, R1+R2, Rn (think that it's actually rn) , not sure wot EFLI is though - please enlighten me!! Q2: my ELECSA assesement is not booked yet, need one more exam... and perhaps some more experience... hmmmm...

not sure what u exactly mean, as in doin the work/services now or will/may be in the future, it's the latter BTW... and also the laws of physics havn't really changed (well from a few microseconds after the big bang -(as in the making of the universe) so Ohms law, Einstiens therory (both...

yea, I saw that too...

thx, I havn't quite read/assimilated all of the 167 pages just yet but looks "good" stuff!

yes I know exactly what u mean, sometimes "red tape" just doubles the time/cost to/for a profession, PS I am 23 mins from London

I assume by class 1 fittings, exposed metal boxes/work, trunking cases etc etc, then no, it's just a normal domestic home, with ceiling roses etc, perhaps (but I'd need to check) some conduits in the plaster may be the older metal type, but not exposed...

that's made me laugh !! :lol:

yes I know exactly what u mean, perhaps even removing a small piece of external brick work (in my case) to route a cpc to a spot, I've set up my own TV transmitting station (in the past - legally) and routed 1/2" very ridged coax type cable 5 meters thru vertical voids to get "closer" to a 60'...

no and no, but please do enlighten me - thx I've even offerd to work for FREE for some other organisations/electricians etc - no takers, if I can't work for free then there really isn't much point in carrying on...?

thx, that's welcome, I've spoken to Elecsa many times before and they are very helpful, I will telephone both them and the Power Supply Organisation to re-clarify the situation, but on the face of it it looks like I've just lost £220 and cannot legally go-ahead with this project, thats 20 weeks...

to have access to roof boards means exposing the joists either above or below, thats either a new roof £1000 + or new celing boards, coving, artexing etc etc , at least the same price

I'll read it thouroghly and properly and consult with the Power Service Organisation as to what they will/might do then (on Monday) (on "inspection after the works) but I had a 20 min consultation with a senior electrician and he stated go-ahead and disclose the departures, there will be no...

I don't like this comment, and it's not constructive, I'm after help...

it's all good quality PVC, except the local auhority "signed off" the works accepting that no lighting cpc was acceptable - perhaps I should sue my local council...

The construction of my property is that many rooms have no access to the "ceiling space" to install a cpc would mean removing the (flat) roofs and/or removing the ceiling boards etc etc 10 days work + materials etc etc = £3000 , that's the bottom line, if you really mean don't do it then I won't...

Well send me £3000 and I'll do it properly... as I stated I was told (in good faith) by the testing Organisation to proceed and still think that 80% is better than 0%, it's for my own piece of mind to have RCDs/RCBOs at my home

cause its a cost of at least £3000, not financially viable as been out of work for 2 years.... I'm sure that the DWP won't give me a crisis loan for this "project" !
