Dont be silly DD ??Time to start wiring sockets in 1.5 ?
Bell WireI'm using wet string... much cheaper
Why are prople stillI’ll second Screwfix for good prices. 2 weeks ago I bought a drum of 1.5 t&e, 1.5 3 core and 2.5 t&e when I didn’t really need it… just as spare drums for the van…
Last weekend there was a 10% off everything offer, so I got another 6 drums, on top of a load of fittings for a job specced by the customer which I won’t need for about a month.
Totally unnecessary for domestic lighting circuits in most cases and makes fitting things like dimmers a pain if 2 way etcWhy are prople still
Using 1.5mm domestically lol
This... Yet is done so oftenTotally unnecessary for domestic lighting circuits in most cases and makes fitting things like dimmers a pain if 2 way etc

Cant remember in the 80's because was on the cards didnt buy much cable just took a bit lol, however did buy 100m of 1mm think it was under £6.Yes , I recently threw out a bunch of old Eddies invoices and 2.5 was £20 + vat back when I started out self employed around 2000/2001
I remember working cards in before this and I think 2.5 was about 17 quid , I don't remember it being less that that but it probably was even cheaper in the 1980s
Yeah that probably sounds about right , I throw away some old invoices that showed I was paying around £8 + vat for 100m of 1mm t&eCant remember in the 80's because was on the cards didnt buy much cable just took a bit lol, however did buy 100m of 1mm think it was under £6.
