I have been asked to price a job in a shop, board change and replace 4 class 1 light fittings!
However the sockets and lighting circuits are all wired stranded aluminium single core cables with no cpc's, however they are wired via galv conduit so obviously they get an earth from this!
i know this needs re-wiring, but same old story of not enough cash.
The cables are definitely tinned copper, they are 100% aluminium!
would you guys be happy changing the db if test results are satisfactory?
i would obviously state on eic that rewire is recommended!
Also would you be happy installing new class 1 lights with only the galv conduit as cpc, I suppose if the zs comply then this would be ok.
there are four 5 amp lighting circuits and four 15 amp socket circuits!
thanks
