If the butyl is buried in plaster/stone and there is nothing flammable
nearby you could run a separate earth wire instead of using the one in

confirm the problem is in the butyl wire.

No trips since the landing skt was partly unscrewed & refitted,
the electrician re-arranged the wires slightly - respacing them.

Hi,

Sounds good, I suppose butyl can absorb damp after a long while.
