hi guys.What code would you give to 6mm cooker cable running through a bedroom clipped to the skirting board.i think it could quite easily get knocked so a c2.
your thoughts please.
Regards Daz.
 
C3 bordering on a C2. if you perceive as potential danger, C2. your call.
 
I'm with Tel on this one, depends where it goes, behind furniture etc etc. you are the man on the ground, only you know whats what.

Cheers................Howard
 
Thanks guys. would feel better if rcd protected, but not to be, might try and persude him it needs a bit of trunking.
thanks for the input. Sometimes its hard to judge.

I find EICR Codes tough to call at times one Mans 2 is another mans 3 , i always look at it as im the one signing the sheet call it a C2 Explain why then your covered you've let him no.
 
on the other hand, if that cable has been there for 20 years and shows no sign of damage, then code 3, IMHO.
