[QUOTE="SPECIAL LOCATION, post: 558625, member: 250"] I can't quite figure out from your post if remedial work has been carried out to make the installation satisfactory for continued use following the EICR? (if not, why not?) If it is still not satisfactory then I would not recommend adding any new circuits or extending any existing circuits.. Always keep in mind that electricity is invisible, difficult to hear or smell but it can kill a healthy adult in less than a second.. and I believe it is still used in some parts of America to administer the death penalty!! And.. Electrical alterations/additions are NOT about making something work.. (which is the typical DIY consideration).. Professionally designed electrical alterations/additions are about ENSURING that in the event of a fault the source(s) of energy will be disconnected fast enough before any people, property or livestock could be put into any danger!!
