Presently I have a spur going from kitchen to utility room which powers 3 appliances! I have plans to use more and so ideally would like to make this part of the ring main so that oveloading is not an issue. [I wish i had done it 4 yrs ago when I bought the house and before certain replastering took place - ho hum]
I am capable of this job, but have 3 quick qus before I start
1) Is there any chance I can use the perfectly good red/black cable I bought a few yrs ago, on the grounds that I am replacing rather than creating [doubt if anyone will commit themselves to saying yes]
2) If not this will be the only stretch of brown/blue cable in house...do I have to put a special warning sticker anywhere to warn about mixed cable?
3) Finally, I am confused about recent legislation regarding bathrooms/kitchens. They are trying to stop amateurs I know, but is there any reason why I can't do something I was capable of doing 4yrs ago
Even with plans for 'Home Inspection Packs' there is no way anyone could prove whether my work was done in 2003 or 2007
Anyway thanks to those who can give me some guidance, I hope i dont start any arguements amoung you all
Thank you
