Running cables through the house loft now and before I go wild with the drill on the joists I thought I'd just check with you lot what I have read and summise is correct.
25% - 40% from either end of a joist is the zone that is mandatory to drill through. Is this correct?
Length from front to back of bungalow is 10.03m This gives a zone of:
2.50m to 4.01m from the joist ends.
This also means I cannot drill through the middle 2m of the joist - is this correct???
Joist height of 95mm = 23.75mm max hole diameter
How many cables can I fit through the holes? I.e. do I have to leave a % of air space? Obviously don't cram them in...
