    bury cable joints in masonry wall?

    are we allowed to? what do the regs say in regards to this? maintenance free joint (so crimp or even a wago?) and would the joint then have to be in an ip box? or can we just slap half a roll of tape round it? all of this before the plaster bonding is applied?

    Breaker not tripping

    40A B type, and the 6mm cable is under floor boards for about 6m and then chased in wall upto work top height to the cooker isolator switch. So if the breaker can have upto 47 amps going through it for 40 minutes without tripping isn't that enough time for the cable to be damaged?! Thanks...
