Again, just looking for views here.
Converted Victorian house. 2 flats. Main supply comes in to two meters and switches in the shared hallway. From those (fused) switches the supply runs to CU's within the individual flats
Electrician is suggesting that need to:
- replace the switched fuse box (will check but could be wire wound fuse as C 20year old)
- replace the run from that box to the CU with 16mm armoured cable.
Is the armoured cable really necessary? The cable run is up from the meter into the ceiling then along for 4m in a 4" gap between the last joist and the solid wall, then up in a trunking in a cupboard to the CU.
