Hello guys,

I‘ll be building an insulated stud wall in front of a single skin brick wall (garage on the other side). There will be 2 couple mains ring sockets and media services, LAN cable etc. as I want to hang a TV on this wall, all running from the ceiling.

Will it be ok to clip the 2.5mm wires to the brick wall, insulate on top and then plasterboard, will that still comply with regs (method 102)?

What is the most common and compliant approach?

Thanks guys
