Morning ,
Just seeing what peoples thoughts are. Been to look at a kitchen extension and there is going to be quite a bit of remedial work. The existing cable was fitted 20 yrs ago white t/e and looks in pretty good condition. IR values 770mohm @500v
I am led to believe that cable has a shelf life of 25yrs.The exsisting stuff is getting on a bit but still passes with flying colours. At what point would you rewire or in this instance would you be happy to use exsisting even though it is £20 yrs old .
Thanks
