Green black Green grey Cable

How would that score on an EICR with the separates not being contained with a CPC for the length of its run? Obviously T+E support the regulation but this would not.

C2 for me

Well it probably did when it was installed, what's the problem?

Had a look today it's all coming out and been rewired it looks like it's cpc and single but didn't investigate to much as it was coming out anyway and it was to the lighting

Lighting in my house is wired in single sheathed cables, but as has been said above it is normally grey sheath with a red or a black inside it, and possibly a CPC. Never seen this stripy stuff. Do let us know what it was connect to!

The OP also mentions "quite a few reds about as well" I agree with PEG the CU would confirm or not whether the cable are what some of us think they are, you also need to take Westy's comment about never seeing mains cables with a green stripe running through them, a good spot, this was posted last Friday, you would have thought the OP would have come back to us by now. May be he has lost interest, as I am , gradually, come on OP open up.

I want to know, most annoying when we don't get outcomes.

Agree, wish he would come back with some more info, not holding my breath though.

Why? Which regulation does it contravene?

Sorry for the late reply been really busy on this not really got down to the route of it as the cosumer unit is a bit of a mess... the lights have been rewired now... it looks like the green and black are cpc but not had a close look as been pushed for time will be hopefully doing a board change within the next couple of weeks so will have a better look then

I've never seen wiring like that... looks like solid copper conductors, not copper coated aluminium.
