Thanks Adam.

Hi,
Had a look at a job today and noticed external lighting had been wired in white FP, clipped to wall surface.
I informed them mechanical protection must be provided and they insisted the board had RCD protection and it wasn't required.
Anyone else seen this before.

Hi,
Am running a radial power circuit in 4mm fp200 with a 20A rcbo but am a bit worried about the voltage drop. I have a 70M run clipped direct and by my calculations I will need to go to 6mm. I am using table 4d2 but don't know if there is a table for fp200.
