Hi all,
I just wanted to check here first in case I ask my electrician and offend him.
He is wiring in lighting in my new kictchen and I see that he has been using grey plastic covered cable with a solid copper core on most of the kitchen for my GU10 mains spot lights.
There are 14 lights in total and he has run grey coloured cable to 8 of the light units and then on the other lights he has used white covered flex cable with stranded copper.
Is this okay? If not, why not?
He must have run out of the solid core cable and decided to use this flex instead. He has also used the same white flex cable for my cooker hoods and under unit lights which are LV spot lights.
Do I need to raise an alarm about this or am I being unduly cautious?
