[QUOTE="chrisgjudd, post: 3417, member: 355"] hi, i am currently doing my major for initial inspection for the nic, it is a consumer unit replacement for my father in law, who is 86 years old.i didn't do a pir and hence found a mountain of problems to put right within the house. i have a few questions in that the cabling is all now pvc but a few runs are stranded pvc type, provided they meet insulation res tests and zs tests can i ok the circuit. the old guy thought he was doing me a favour letting me do the consumer unit and i would hate to start ripping the house apart any more than neccessary. also a metal outside light (unearthed) needs replacing can i have a few inches of pvc cable exposed or must it be swa. By the way the consumer unit is a 17th edition split rcd , with all circuits now protected by rcd, the earthing arrangement is tt, which obviously bares upon zs requirements all help (not kicks to the gooloes)appreciated chrisgjudd [/QUOTE]
