Discuss casting down-lights into concrete (new build) in the UK Electrical Forum area at ElectriciansForums.net

I know its a headache job- buts its in a nice part of town for quite a 'cool tasted' architech (its going to be he home)
exposed polished walls/ceilings with pretty cool features going in.
Its a 30k job for me plus will look great on my portfolio
 
so asked the make up of the ground floor (where he wants me to run the cables for the basement level below) ....
  • Concrete Screed – Max temperature 20-30C
  • Reinforcement Mesh
  • Wet Underfloor heating pipes, within the concrete screed, max water temperature 40-60C, not touching your wires/trunking.
  • Electric Wiring within plastic trunking
  • RC Concrete Slab
 
If its the architects house and he has specced it out then he should have done the spec for the electrical work, its not up to you to work it out as you are not the designer, you are the grunt that just does as he is told and gets paid for it.

To me it looks like he is looking at you to find a solution to his design criteria.
