As far as I was aware cable tray is adequate containment in a plant room for non armoured cables to be ran on. I ran some 2.5mm butyl cables for immersion heaters and cable tied them to the cable tray and another electrician had stated they should be ran in armour cable as the containment isn't enough. These cables are in plain view on a tray behind various equipment so no chance of being struck by anything so can anyone point out where I went wrong. do I need to change the cables
My other concern is I have been asked to wire a workshop for a mate using cable tray at high level and plastic conduit drops to sockets and lights using t+e then running armours for the ramps and compressor by the reasoning of the electrician slagging my work this should be incorrect. has there been a change I the regs I don't know about or am I just getting old.
