Ceiling Void

[tomKett]

All,

Preparing a rewire for my Elecsa inspection, I am rewiring a bungalow, to rewire the lights there is a void between the ceiling and the roof of approx 4", I am therefore able to thread the cable to the light fitting, however I will be unable to clip the wire, is this acceptable?

regards

Yep, supported by ceiling and in safe zone.

Good luck with assessment

I agree with above and you will find that most assessors do not go over everything with a fine toothcomb. Your review will last about 3 hours for desktop assessment travelling to see both jobs a few questions and then they will also be advising you, so in effect your 3 hours will feel like 10 minutes.


Good luck with your assessment if its your first post any concerns you may have and we will do our best to ensure an easy time unlike the exams where you get ambigiuos and tricky questions the assessment is straightforward.

Thanks for the replies.

With regards to calculating cable size's and the OSG having tables designed for this, however my cables will all be mounted in plaster within the walls, it would appear I can't use these tables for this installation method?
