I had stated NO installations, thats why I asked for advice
Regret I do not follow your drift, but it does rather sound as if you
ARE doing some installation as you are talking about channelling into a
wall.
Judging from your initial post it might be advisable to pause a while
for some basic study before you make a BIG expensive error due to
transferring assumptions that you might make in electronics to domestic
cabling & finding they don't apply.
To put it another way, generally terms in the electrical
equations/calculations which vanish in electronics don't in domestic
cabling & vice versa.
If you know your electronics there should be no trouble understanding
the different flavour of electrical theory as applied to wiring.
Take care.
If I follow the guides for cable sizes with regards floor area and
cable length and follow installation as per regulations I cant see
where I can go wrong. I am only installing one consumer unit two ring
mains ( one spur off one for an extractor hood) two lighting ccts one
switching two ceiling roses and one switching one light two way and
another one way.
A cooker and hob, earth all pipework with 6mm? earth bond and straps
the runs for the cooker and hob will be 5 metres so I take it I will
use 16mm,
the only thing I cant work out in my head is the double switch, but
the book should sort that out.
I would like to complete it myself as I enjoy the "DIY" thing, the
plumbing will be fine as well as the extension of the heating system.
