Hi
I no very little to do with the regs surrounding electrical cable installation but on removing a faulty floodlight the other day i noticed the electrician we had used last year to install the light has used what looks to me like twin and earth cable to wire the light to the kitchen ceiling rose.
On looking for a new light i came across something on Homebase on installing the light from scratch and it mentions using "rubber-sheathed 1mm2 3-core flexible cable". Can anyone tell me out right if the installation of my light with the twin and earth does not fullfil BS7671 wiring regs. I have never seen an outdoor light wired with this type of cable.
Urgent help required
