Hi, I'm new to the electrical field, have passed my level 2 and learning my level 3 but regrettably have very little 1st fix experience.
As an assignment I have been asked to provide a fixture and fitting list to a made up drawing of a first floor house(lounge/halllway/kitchen/downstairs toilet/ stairs), this I can do and work out the scales and positions for each, I know whats required for the sockets and cooker point, the bit i am stuck on is the lighting circuits for each room, I know its one continual circuit on one level but each room has different numbers of lights and some are 1 way 1 gang, others are 2way, and some are 3 gang units. The bit I dont know is the best way to wire across and where best to go from 2c&E to 3c&E cable 1.5, as know some circuits would require strappers etc, but I have only done individual lighting arrangements in the college not wired across a number of rooms with different things in each, so not sure best way to do it.
What I need if any one is able to help, is a blue print possibly for a down stair wiring system across the different rooms showing the wiring circuits for each fitting to each room, (not worried about earthing path on it) just the live and neutral paths and where best different core cables are best used to compete different styles of circuits.( an examples would do as I can then transfer that idea into my drawing I have)
The outcome for the assignment is I have to list the quantity of cable required to complete the job, but as say as do not know where 2c&E or 3c&E would be best used I can not work it out, if anyone could help it would be very much appreciated, cheers .!
