I was having a look inside the CU at my grans flat (one level).
All wiring was redone during extensive renovations in the mid 90's.
She has one breaker for all her lights with two wires (red) in it.
Got me thinking. Would this be two seperate lighting circuits into the breaker. And if so, is this common place and safe?
She has 6 rooms that have lights in them (all pendants)
One reason I could think of is that routes overhead for lighting cable might have been made difficult by steel beams and the electricians may have just taken one feed one way and another in the other direction (CU is in centre of flat)
