    Made me jump!

    Re the tools, it's a relatively recent "upgrade" over the past 3 years replacing previous stuff that's done me well for over 15 yes. My Fat Max wire cutter strips the outer sheath off a 2.5mm twin and earth better than any of my knipex tools but overall happy with the kit, very well made. I'd...

    Made me jump!

    Thank you both. I was approaching it from the angle of properly mapping each socket to its respective MCB. For example I know in one upstairs bedroom, 2 sockets are on one circuit and 1 socket is on another so was thinking it would be useful to create a file that documents what each relates to...

    Ah ok, good info thank you. Is there a DIY friendly gadget that can trigger overcurrent protection?

    Will start tracing back each socket to the relevant RCD using my loopcheck and RCD check function (ie trips it). Out of curiosity, tried it on the TV socket and only the RCCB on the end tripped, not the single circuit RCDs (including the one labelled for the relevant socket). That's not normal...

    True. I just look at it and it screams "they won't know, how will they know". Maybe it's the OCD in me but a professional job this is not.

    Have excavated around sockets to see what's what and we'll, fair to say that vertical/horizontal routes took second fiddle to the magic of diagonal ???

    Extension completed in 2010, wouldn't regs then have required a protective conduit in this scenario? Either way, no space for a MF wagobox so I'm going to have to crimp/solder and insulate then plaster over

    Made me jump!

    Walls are over 2 foot thick (Henry Hoover for reference!) as this is the old house exterior to extension wall and no sockets on other side. Adding additional photo for wall context. What I struggle to understand is given this is all "new" cabling ie fixed to exterior of original house when...

    Made me jump!

    Looks like I hit a main route. Managed to piece two wires but interestingly someone else had pierced another two but decided to leave them. Also found out why it sounded so hollow, probably one of the most spaced out and deep dot and dabs going
