Always 2.5 for any power circuit

Just in case for example home owner moves boiler can then turn boiler spur into a double socket

Still can if it's 1.5mm depending on breaker size.

I personally don’t like 1.5 on a B16

Why not?

C16 then

 

[Dustydazzler]

I know it technically complies but i think changing the device to a B20 is my ‘preferred’ option if converting a boiler supply to a double 13a socket

Just my preference

20Amp radial socket circuit quite correct Dd. Standard socket radial circuit isn't it?

not sure you can run 1mm for a non lighting circuit

I am sure.

You can't.

I've never wired central heating in 2.5mm^2 - there is absolutely no point when the entire system is typically fed through a 3A BS 1362 fuse anyway.

I have always wired them in 1.5mm^2 and see no reason to change it.

A B6 or B10 and all's k00l.

Just out of intrest has anyone got a souce for where it says 1mm cant be used for a non lighting circuit.

Never done it, just intrested. Tell me to look myself if you wish.

 

[Pete999]

Litrelly never installed a piece of 1mm cable. Always 1.5mm.
