The lighting circuit and any pipes in the bathroom should be cross-bonded, regardless of which zone they are in. "Regulation 601-04-01 requires that the protective conductor terminals of each circuit supplying Class I and Class II electrical equipment in zones 1, 2 or 3, and...

I was being mischievous, sorry :wink: When you get your multimeter, put it on continuity, or if it has a buzzer, this would be better. Turn the dimmer off. Turn the lighting circuit off. Put the test leads across a pair of cables at the light fitting. One of them should have no...

Sssh man :wink:

Bad craic mate. Hope you have insurance :shock:

Too bloody right. That's why I asked.

I already decided that :wink: I'm just a bit bored. Days off are overrated :wink:

He's only joking like. You don't need one.

Eh ? :lol: I didn't change it from 1. I typed it wrong on my first post. You won't take it personal if I say I've already told you that I mistyped 1, and I think you can't read :wink: I didn't ask if I fixed as I go, although I can see how that came across. I do all of my repairs after...

:lol: Are you a spy for building control or NICEIC ? Read it again. I typed 1 by accident. No, I'm not going to answer you, just to annoy you :wink:

Read the thread again. I also do the repairs.

Normally I do it as I'm going round testing as it's only a 2 min job. But seen as the plaster is going to make it difficult I'd be inclined to quote first with a priviso that any damage caused to plaster will not be covered by myself. Cheers, that's what I thought. I didn't open all...

So then. You are avoiding the question. Would you put it right ? :wink:

Or a '3' ? It requires improvement ?

:oops: I didn't mean to put 1 tbh. I actually wrote 3 on the report. Or it could be a 4.

:lol: I posted whilst thinking out loud there. That was short for " running two cooker circuits and fittings would take up the bulk of the cost " :wink:

[/url] Aye Or you could go horizontally from the double socket, and if you are really clever and have a long drill bit, start drilling a few inches before the corner, aiming for the safe zone in the return wall :wink:

The 'not sure about this' bit is fine, as the cables are on a direct path between two accessories. The 'think this is bad' bit is definitely wrong. Is there no way that socket can be put on the small wall ?

Agreed. Two seperate 6mm cables for the cooker and hob would take up the bulk of the cost.

Just carried out a PIR on a property, which looked like it had been rewired in the last couple of years ( new colours ), but no certificate present. None of the switch wires were sleeved. I marked it down on the report as a 1. The place had recently been replastered and decorated and the...

They aren't. I was quoting from an extract of the new regs, as published in the latest NICEIC Connections magazine. 'Every circuit in the special location, including lighting circuits, must have 30mA protection'.
