So, who is doing this work?
Shouldn't you be talking to the electrician who will actually be doing the job?
Not sure what is so funny. Just curious about how all this would work, the answers I was getting back on this forum was ask the electrician (who wasn't around at the time), so I thought I would ask here considering that's the point of this forum?Hilarious stuff this. The OP should write sitcoms.
So the builders has finally bought in a electrician to do the job as the trenches have just finished being dug out. The electrician will be doing all the work. I asked him about the setup as well and he basically gave me a few options and one of those was what I wrote above.
And the kitchen,normaly a domestic kitchen is part of a domestic dwelling unless this is to be used as a small commercial kitchen.why would ANYBODY put the boiler in a separate building 20 meters away? That just sounds so odd.
No, you're being too cynical.Would it be cynical to suggest the OP and builder are one and the same? Of course it would be, perish the thought. Builders never do electrics...….do they?

Builder bought in his own electrician who will do the wiring. However I am up for bringing in my own person? anyone here want a job, rewire whole house and the new outhouse.Who is doing the rewire then?
Sounds fishy

??A 16mm armored cable will be run from the henly to the outhouse CU.
You guys are way to suspicious.
Never said he was on holiday.
Anyway Murdoch, how about you come down and give me a quote?
With the job that far advanced it's leaving it a little late to engage an electrician, doesnt sound like a great deal of forward planning is in place.Just thought I'd end the conversation here. Thank you all for responding.
As I said, happy to get alternative quotes, if you can send me a PM ill give you the details.
5 Bed
2 Bath
2 Receptions
a WC
Extension (Kitchen)
Outhouse (Boiler/Cylinder and Kitchen)
All new wiring for main house and new sockets, light switches, light fixtures.
New CU for main house
New CU for outhouse
It's a big job. The house is completely gutted now, so no need to worry about wiring runs (should be easier). The ground floor has a crawl space about 3ft and enough of the floor boards off to make wiring runs easier there.
All plaster is off the wall, and ill have the builder do any chasing etc...
