right, now you're up to speed :-) can you see any problems with the
cable run following the gas pipe in the diagram depicted in my
original post, in relation to the various regulations ?


Well a quick look shows that it is non-viable, as you may not conceal
wiring behind the skirting board unless mechanically protected or
bury it more than 50mm deep.


mechanically protected you say ?

perhaps behind a 22mm gas pipe behind



a skirting board which has already been
passed by a BCO ? see where I'm going ? quick, dirty yet within the regs


No that wouldn't be mechanically protected - it needs to be in steel
conduit, or covered with suitable steel plate
