Discuss Broken core 2 way switch in the UK Electrical Forum area at ElectriciansForums.net

Afternoon,

I've just been to a new build finishing off some lighting and found a fault in the 3c&e between the landing and hallway. No continuity on 1 core.

It's going to cause a lot of damage to replace the cable. The other 2 cores & CPC are good, IR tests fine.

Is there anything out there wireless, everything I have seen looks to still need the 3 cores between switches.

Suggestions welcome!!
 
if so, than the cable to the hallway to of the stairs needs replacing.
then is down to plasters to repair the damage .
How do you know it was the plasterer's fault in the first place, Buzz highly likely but is there, be any proof.

How old is the property? is it still under warranty?
