Hi everyone, just a couple of quick questions. I'm currently working on a new build site (my 1st as I'm a relative novice) and there are some conflicting ideas.
Would a dedicated boiler radial requiring a 3A fused spur require 2.5 t&e and a 16A MCB as specified by one of the guys on site - it seems a little excessive? I would have gone for 1 or 1.5 and a 6A MCB but I'm just the boy so I'm keeping quiet for the moment!
Also due to some difficult rsj locations the ring circuit in a couple of rooms runs vertically but has to loop under the rsj - when it was suggested that the sockets were linked horizontally at 450mm it was rejected as being poor practice. I had a look in the onsite guide and although it clearly shows horizontal lighting circuit runs it does not show the ring.
Just thought I'd run these by you sensible types as te guys on site can't seem to agree on either of these issues.
Thanks.
