Default lights wires 1.5mm or 2.5mm (100 amp maion fuse)


"george [dicegeorge]" wrote in message ...
I was about to order 1.5 mm wire for lighting before the Tuesday VAT rise when I noticed in Collins Complete Wiring and Lighting
page 26 :
[LENGTHS: if the company fuse is larger than 60 amps, 25mm2 meter leads are required]
But I have never seen any other mention of this.
So can I not use 1.5 mm wire?

I'm confused.

Why would reading something about meter tails size and board fuse ratings
influence your choice of a suitable cable size for a lighting cct?
