[QUOTE="user 10734, post: 335659, member: 10734"] Hi Guys Many thanks for the feedback. As ever the cat has been skinned many ways. A couple of points below: 1) If I needed a [U][B]small [/B][/U]external recessed box (as a meter size box will be ridiculously large) to house a fused isolator (local wholesalers drew a blank)? Any thoughts who does one? [U][B]2) Following the Forum Feedbacks :[/B][/U] a) Didn't we settle on the fact that we can't use split concentric under 7671 as it has no armouring . ? b) I was told last millenia by NICCY that Split Con could not be used except by DNO due to lack of circumferential armoured protection c) So, you would have to protect the splitcon with a 30mA RCD. [U][B]My Response:[/B][/U] Due to the run in a wall chase via 25mm steel conduit and no additional protection when running between joists >50mm from surface (i.e. floor and ceiling) so I did not see a need for cable armour (i.e.SWA) or RCD protection (Correct me if wrong!) Thanks again for you help [/QUOTE]
