Hi, I've sold my house and had to get the building inspector round to do a final check on a steel we had put in 2 years ago which we thought was done but wasn't.
Our electrician put in some small spot lights running along the steel. We had the building inspector round today who said that the lights aren't fire rated. We've now looked on the Internet and spoke to a couple of electrical suppliers and the fire rated spot lights are much deeper than the ones we already have in there. We only have 75mm between the surface of the plasterboard and the steel. The smallest lights I've found are 98mm!
Am I properly screwed?
Cheers
Tom
