[QUOTE="Shocker1, post: 561155, member: 38479"] No, and you shouldn’t, which is why I hired an electrician and consulted many forums and calculators to arrive at the specifications I, and the electrician, did. I trenched in the cable, mounted and wired the sockets and lighting, made off the SWA, installed the consumer unit and purchased other bits. All of that is done to regs, tested and working. I sent them regular photos, which they approved, and I left the rest for them, which I wasn’t totally confident with. After seeing the electricians work, hearing their original specs and what they are now suggesting, I am looking for help. That is exactly why I am here asking these questions.. I’m asking people like you, an electrician of 50 years, for help and expertise. If seems like all you can offer is short, patronising and uninformative advice at this stage! I know you are a self-titled old git but why not appreciate that I am not some social media zombie who doesn’t want to learn anything; I’m trying to expand my electrical knowledge and skills with help from professionals and forum communities, so why don’t you stop being a grumpy old bastard and help? I haven’t just been down to B&Q and picked up any old cable and chosen which colour I like the best for any old terminal. [/QUOTE]
