    Would that be a 'Scotch' pound or an English one ... or a United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland one? ;oP

    I am sorry elsparko ... I cannot say that I had noticed the loss of your 'sparkling' wit and banter!

    Power cables and hot water pipes.

    Whichever it is, it does not appear to be between 7 % and 25 % of span ... and almost certainly deeper than 12.5 % of depth!

    Choosing a power supply, switch fuse size

    Who is this 'shirley' person anyway ... elsparko ... I think you mean 'surely' ... one less letter to enter and a slightly different letter order!

    1mm or 1.5mm T&E for standard lighting circuit in your average house.

    ... indeed, I was 'playing' with MS Excel the other day, creating a graph of maximum design current vs circuit length for each size of cable to use as a useful indicator of maximum circuit length for a given design current.

    1mm or 1.5mm T&E for standard lighting circuit in your average house.

    Lee, I didn't for one moment imply that the house that I am working on is 'standard' or 'average' ... merely that effective application of BS 7671 design rules are required in every case!

    Bloody Wood Butchers.

    Clearly ... if I remember correctly, it may have been wrapped in insulation tape that had come 'loose' due presumably to 'aged' adhesive!
