hey up all, i have an old wylex CU sans RCD which id like to change to a MCB
type with internal RCD and move the whole thing 18 inches to the left of its current location so that its under the stairs. the wiring was renewed by the previous owner before i bought the house 6 years ago, i had the electrical safety tested by an electrician at the time and he said it is within the (then)current regs as long as there was at least one RCD protected outlet which there was, in the garage. id like to change the old CU unit with a modern one and also move it as stated, but have the problem of extending the T&Es coming down the wall under the plaster...how would i go about doing this? also i have 6 fuses atm which are; upstairs lights, downstairs lights, upstairs sockets, downstairs sockets, shower and cooker...but id like to extend the system to enable me to run some SWA down to the garage...any advice on what items i should be looking for? ta muchly Steve |
