A property is was looking at needs rewiring but as usual the client wants minimal amount of work needed just to bring the instalation up to current regs the lighting, bonding, defenatley need to be replaced but the sockets do have double insulated twin and earth but with stranded ally cpc not copper ? Need to be rewired aswell even if the circuits give decent test readings
 
Maybe I only had a glimse in the old bord it might be all cables a ally or tinned copper theres much larger sheeth normal I would recomend to change these any way, if ya gonna have a load of work done what's the point leaving half cables proberly 30 years old or more but I was just cureous if she realy wanted to could they be used thanks for your imput
 
Nothing stopping any cable being kept as long as it passes all tests.
