Hello,
I've recently had some outside lights fitted, there is about 10 of them, all LED. The electricans took the cable from the fuse board down into my basement void where other services are running and then out to the garden. Outside they have used armoured cable, 1.5mm, about 20-30meters in total I'd have thought. But in the basement void, it's about another 20m from the fuseboard end to the outside but they have used a 0.75mm 3 core white flex cable.
The circuit breaker is 6 amps.
I don't know whether that is good or bad but to me something isn't quite sitting right having a cable half the size of the armoured cable, it looks like they've used a cable very similar to the flex hanging down on my pendants for 20m.
Should I be concerned or is it ok? Since I have had the work done I've been hearing bad things about the company I used so I was hoping someone on here could give me some advice.
Thank you.
