Just a bit more from this job I've been going on about at the stables..
The chap has 10-15 meters of flex plugged in (just below Consumer unit) taking power to each individual flood. What sort of length of flex is acceptable? I'm going to be changing it all so they are on seperate MCB's in CU, so T&E to seperate switchs just below consumer unit and then can i just use the flex he already has in place, would save him a lot in time and cable? I'd rather be using T&E on a longer run and then into a junction box just before the flood to change to flex to terminate into flood?
