I've listened to this as as usual these guys are pretty frank about what is proposed. Recommend people find time to listen to it

That S FCU is definitely inaccessible. Its about time BS 7671 had a go at defining "inaccessible" once and for all

But lots of so called sparks think you can only have 1 cable per MCB / RCBO (except rings of course)
