Been asked to advise on a rewire. I think on age alone it's advisable but the following points add to the argument.
Installation age approx 60 years.
This is a "forever Home" so although it may test ok how long will it stay so?
Black T&E throughout. Not a reason to condemn alone but adds to the case.
No lighting CPCs
The house is being knocked about and stripped for redecoration.
It's what looks like a looped supply as there are two TN-S incomers and only one fuse, sheaths linked via MET ??2.5mm ish main earth cable. Ideally I'd like a new supply as looking to move the CU, new meter, mains isolator. It's a simple under floor job to run so why not get the mains cable run direct to new CU location?
What disasters do the hive mind anticipate.
