when i say running through the bathroom, its basically under the floor boards but the bit where the boxing in is behind the bath doesnt box in to the floor. It shouldnt be a big deal there are not any connections and people run t&e outside!! i just wondered the proper regs on it! The...

what about in the area (that should be floor boarded) behind the sink (boxed in) running horizontally to a bedroom on the otherside of the bathroom

I presume its ok to run cables in boxing in within bathrooms. There is a clear route from the fuse board for one leg of the ring behind the sink area (and behind the back of the bath) and i was also thinking of using the stud bit behind the shower to run lighting cables into the loft. I presume...

not lost my job but wanting to leave to expand my electrical knowledge as my company does other work than electrical and we dont often get to do any!!! also it would help for hard work to be appreciated once in a while!! lol

cheers Evans, after the day ive had at work i dont suppose anyone is hiring in todays climate? im in bristol. cheers.

oh right then i guess putting any kind of switch fuse outside the house is a bit daft if someone can just come along and turn it off!? only an idea if no im back to the old idea of the cavity wall raising the board to the kitchen ceiling.

hi guys just thinking about my previous questions, i was also wondering the following, perhaps instead of moving the fuseboard up in the kitchen to ceiling level (and feeding tha tails in the cavity) that I could put some sort of 100a isolator / switchfuse in the metre box (located outside)...

which is the best shower switch?? to fit a 10mm? crabtree i presume?

ive recently bought a house thats a dump inside, im rewiring etc and that is why i asked the question, its no big deal to run a 10m if needed. I am intregued about the pump and tank suggestion as the house has the old fashioned heating system (tank in loft and immersion tank) i just dont know...

what does everyone recommend as the best electric shower in their opinion? and for what reasons?!? many thanks

also as you now know i dont do domestic work very often, can anyone recommend a good electric power shower? does anything match the mira sport max these days? cheers

how do you get the cable duct in the wall?? how many bricks do you need to take out for that?!

be a bit hard to drain into the fuse board as im rasing it 2 metres!!!! lol but i suppose you could put a drip loop before it goes into the meter box? is that what you mean?

cool i think thats sorted then? some pvc flexi conduit in the wall to protect the cables from damage pulling cables in? and also protect from any future wall insulation damaging cables etc. As i wrote earlier i presume its best to seal the cavity up from either side after the holes have been...

and as ive never done this before am i supposed to seal the cables on entry into the fuseboard and in the meter box? so that the cavity wall is sealed?

if i install 35mm tails what size does the copex go upto!?!?

so basically if i get some 32 mm copex (i presume this will fit 2x 25mm tails and 16mm earth) and upgrade the 16mm tails to 25mm tails that should be adaquate (descrimination etc meaning no need to go bigger)? and within the regs? thanks andy you have been a great gettin back so quickly.

thanks andy c ive read that thread it not very clear! some people say seem to think its ok some people dont, if the people are 100% sure of not having cavity insulation in the future does it matter? its a family member so its not like i cant tell them! and they wont be moving! it also says in...

hello im doing a house rewire and currently the fuse board is directly on the other side of the meter(which is outside) this means its in the kitchen cupboard at low level. This is a daft position for a fuse board and i was thinking about moving it to high level, so that any future addition...
