Hi all,
I have a new 17th edition spec CU to install, replacing a BS3036 fused box. As there is no floor up or re-wiring allowed (unless there is a horror story from the PIR (being performed first), I may have to use the existing circuit conductors. My question is on the extension of these tails to the new MCBs. What would be the approved/recommended method for joining the extensions ? My current thought is to crimp. Also, is it advisable to keep to the old red/black colours on the tails or use the new colours.
Thanks in advance
