    House purchase - old electrics

    So finalise all these points and get sparks to quote for exactly what you want - then you'll be able to compare prices Not sure where in the UK you are so pricing could vary A LOT

    House purchase - old electrics

    OP - why don’t you draft a spec, room by room and post it here for comments Rule of thumb regarding sockets, at least 1 per corner of a room, 2 where a tv will be. Seriously consider running CAT from where the router is to where TVs and computers will be. Smoke and heat alarms. Outside lights...

    How much do you charge for an EICR?

    I quite agree. Problem is that many LAs have sparks offering bottom price reports. I never did a report for a LA - only direct for Landlords who pay for a decent report That said doing EICRs can be so tedious so I never wanted to do many

    Best you get the spark to do this, not the builder

    How much do you charge for an EICR?

    It all rather depends on where you are in the UK , and whether you want to join the race to the bottom

    4mm Radial Circuit using Wago 5-way?

    Still not convinced that your sketch makes any sense - too complicated by far and no internal lights?

    Didn't the RCD in the fuseboard trip ? Best you update your profile name too

    4mm Radial Circuit using Wago 5-way?

    Rather unorthodox - who is signing this off? As this is for a garden office, my advice would be to get professional help - for the electrics
