The forum is not a homework answering service r.b. what are your thoughts as the correct answer? We can wait while you fetch your regs book. Also you will learn far more by trying yourself first.

Just to add a large proportion of success within all C&G electrical exams is finding your way around the books & guidance notes. None of us will be helping you if we just keep feeding answers after you have typed out the next question.

[PC Electrics]

never use cpc as a phase conductor then

Not only is this 'common sense', but there is actually a reg for this. It came in for the 17th, probably because of all those tankstats that are wired with 3 core using the cpc as the satisfied return!! (todays lesson from PC: use 4 core for tank stats)

 

[Andy™]

iirc, it was also a reg in 16th

 

[r.b]
