    Fault on MI cables on outside ligting circuit

    I agree, have all the tools but last made off an MI cable in 1986 as I recall! I wondered whether to just run a new tuff cable next to it, quite an old building so they are keen to retain the MI for aesthetics.

    What would you advise here?

    On small jobs charging for cable

    I charge for everything, every wago, every meter of cable etc, etc, in fact I keep a job sheet and write everything on it. However I do tell my customers I will charge any extras at cost.

    Switch Plate Wiring?

    A job I had where a team of itinerant squirrels had taken up residency in a customers loft and eaten all the cables! In one of the back boxes there were six cables, the person fitting it had crimped all the earths together and screwed the crimp ti the back of the box!?
