... but I still can't see how anyone will ever be able to tell whether
a particular bit of wiring has a certificate or not. These
certificates (as I understand it) won't be detailed enough to tell
exactly which bits of wiring they refer to.

I noticed that some of the twin and earth I have been using has the year
stamped on the insulation every meter or so with raised numbering, ie.it's
part of the insulation not printed in ink.I don't know what the purpose of
this is but it will certainly make it difficult to claim that the wiring was
installed before the year stamped on the cable.

I don't recall where I bought the reel, either Wickes or TLC. Maybe this
will be a requirement for all cable manufacturers?
