OOI which trade are you in Softus? 
That's a complicated one to answer.
I'm forever having to do non-notifiable electrical work in the context of plumbing and heating, but without having had any training to do it, so I've been looking into becoming a registered "domestic installer"; the problem seems to be lack of time...

I was always told that behind a socket you should always use crimps. I don't thing crimps work as well on solid core.

Why don't use insolation tape? Is this the theory again that it can collect moisture and trip the RCD?
Thanks for your advise
