Hi All,
I've got an existing 7mm twin and earth cable that goes from a main distribution box to a smaller one.
Right now it runs through the cavity of my wall up to the loft. This isn't good and isn't safe if I get the cavity filled.
I've found another route for it (punch through the wall, run externally and punch back through) but I dont know if it's either legal or safe for me to do it. Obviously if either is a no then I'll get a sparky out for it.
Also, assuming it's legal for me to do it, can I cut the wire part way to make re-running it easier and connect with a wago box? Bonus points if it'd be good to replace some or all of it with 10mm just for fun.
