Hi all, (hello BAS)
I started a thread a while back about moving my meter, and got banned..
Hmm, DIY? or DIYnot? I'm wondering? I'm just doing my own place up to sell on, and move onto the next..
Anyway, I've found a great spark who is willing to let me do the 1st fix on a complete house rewire. In all honesty, the place doesn't need a full rewire, but the amount of work involved in extending circuits, new DB, etc, He said go for a full rewire including smoke detectors etc and he would do the 2nd fix and test, sign off the work. Making the place more sell able.
He has planned the downstairs lighting circuit, which involves 7 cables going into a single gang three way lighting switch.
I have plenty of room between the switch and ceiling. I have got 20mm oval tubing to run the rest of the wiring, but what am I supposed to do with 3 X 1.5mm 3 core and earth link cables and 4 X1.5mm t&e lighting cables (includes feed). Its loop in, and will also have to connect up 7 neutrals, all in a single gang back box? I've bought a 47mm deep one, but its gonna be a squeeze isn’t it??? also, how would one make the cables accessible, as they wont all fit in 20mm tubing.?
cheers.
