Hi all

I have been considering how to satisfy 17th Edition wrt cooker cable.
As I see it there are three options:
1 Fit RCBO in place of MCB for cooker feed
2 Use earthed steel conduit protection
3 Bury cable 50mm below wall surface.

4 Use a cable with integral earth shield (including SWA or MICC for example)

(1 would be the obvious choice in many cases)

So, the question is, is option 3 above actually directed at modern domestic
installations where the inner leaf is only 100mm thick?

Its not ideal in many if not most cases.
