[QUOTE="ElectricSpecs, post: 503101, member: 33199"] OK So i have gotten an email from the electrician today which I asked for a while ago- giving a breakdown of the work required. He has listed the faults as follows which correspond to the niceic form below. 4 4.16No RCD protection for socket outlets used for internal use. As the main cable to the flat, this is made of twin and earth cabling which is required to be RCD protected C2 Consumer unit 5 4.17No RCD protection for socket outlets used for internal use. As the main cable to the flat, this is made of twin and earth cabling which is required to be RCD protected C2 – Same as above [ATTACH]10971._xfImport[/ATTACH] his email also says: [B]100mA RCD Unit[/B] As the existing submain cable is wired in twin and earth, this type of cable is required to be protected by an RCD. A new 100mA RCD unit in a new enclosure will need to be installed in the mains cupboard. This will provide the correct protection on the supply cable to the flat He seems to have bundled both inside and outside into that one section which is under the heading of CU/DB which seems eroneous to me. As suggested I will go back and ask him which reg no this is needed to comply with. [/QUOTE]
