Yes, the original width + the width of the plasterboard :(

Hi all. I finally persuaded the local council to deal with the crumbly walls in the hall of my council flat. Unfortunately, their solution was to remove the architraves and directly overboard the old, uneven lath and plaster wall with plasterboard. I told them that I would fit new...

Thats ok :)

Hiya, no.. its all max 5v

Ooooh, thats a bit low... REMEMBER, this is all THEORY at the moment. I will draw a circuit diagram THEN take it to an electrician for assessment. I am a qualified electronics engineer and I am more than aware of compliance!

Yes, - So a mini split load CU in the room would probably be the answer.... As for the cable running from the main CU, this is located on the other side of the room wall at the top so I was contemplating dropping cable through the wall cavity to the mini cu in the room then from the mini cu to...

Thankyou for that quick reply. Yes, I'm puzzled too! - However, perhaps a small 2-way/3-way CU is the answer in the room, meaning that I could indeed run the lights too. (30A MCB in main CU being sufficient for feeding the room CU?) - Surely I wouldnt have to put an isolator beside the main...

Hi all. I stay in a 3 bed flat and I'm currently converting 1 room as a workroom for electronic circuit testing. I will require 6 x double sockets and a feed for a couple of flourescent lights. Sockets.. The idea i had was to take a feed from a 30A breaker in the main CU (6mm T&E) to...
