Not been on here in ages but as the title says.... We've acquired a new unit recently, and this beauty happens to be in my workshop to be. Its fed from an Ancient Memway board (3x 20A BS3036) which in turn is fed from a 100A BS88 switchfuse. On the plus side, the ELFI isn't horrendous. :)

Depends what you've agreed, but normally the electrician should "make good" But if you are a plasterer, and feel more confident in your own work, just ask him / her to work this into the price. Cables don't have to be in capping as long as your not going to damage them with the trowel.
