what code for flex used to wire 15amp radial on EICR?, got a CU change to do later in the year and found a radial wired in flex
1.5mm² is too small or the 15A fuse is too big - unless consideration has been taken to permit the omission of overload protection.1.5, on 15A 3036 at the moment, only running a fridge, don't like to condemn something just because it's unconventional
There is a big difference between not knowing everything and not knowing something so basic and so easy to find in the Wiring Regulations that it makes you a charlatan to be taking money from people to provide professional expertise.Yes this is supposedly a DIY forum (albeit with a section for gas engineers), but I also happen to know from past experience that people like securespark, ericmark, EFLImpudence etc often frequent this page and invariably offer sound advice to those mortals who like to check their own judgement at times, and as someone who doesn't have the arrogence to believe he knows everything, I don't mind asking occasionally, I have on many occasions given advice and taken part in discussions where other people have sought reassurance, and tried to do that without passing judgement, obviously a skill which many manage to display, but sadly not all
I know of a large, multinational corporation, that in the UK, uses YY almost exclusively for their fixed wiring.
If it doesn't need to H07 or SWA, it's YY.
