advice please

[BES]

Been out of game for 2yrs due to illness so a bit rusty and would be gratful for advice.Cu change for Part P assesment.Cant touch decor to much, inlaws house. A few problems caused by diyer.
1.16a mcb with 3 seperate radials . 1 feeds 1x1g skt other 1x1g skt other 1x2g skt. Going to split into 2 radials in 16a + 1 radial in 16a.
2. 16a mcb with 2 seperate radials. 1x1g 1x2g in kitchen.OK.
I know its bad pratice and not standard circuit (but i think its just same as spuring of a radial at any point )Not against regs and will be ok for assesment if label up at cu and noted on cert. But 3 in 1 again bad pratice better split into 2 and 1.
3. Shared neutral on landing light, usual thing fed from down light. Neutral from up. Going to run sheathed single in existing trunking to loft to landing light to solve trip prob.ok.
4 .2g skt directly behind electric cooker at low level is this ok. Not sure again think not against regs just bad practice.
5.Shower 9.5KW fed by 4mm!!!.Upgrade to 10mm luckly 4mm is already in trunking on landing to loft cu under stairs.
6.Garage 20a mcb from house cu 2.5 2c armour.To 2way m/clad cu 6a 16a Problem being old freezer which trips rcd.1 light 2 skts. Going to remove rcd at cu in garage change skt to rcd type and have freezer on m/clad unswt fcu.New house cu high integrity with garage on main sw side no rcd.ok.Yes pme but no extreneous parts, water pipes eg, in garage so ok. though you may not agree.
7.Rest of house skts mix of 1g and 2g 32a mcb rfc feedin 14 points.Not best but ok.
Two Cus at present right mess main old wylex m/c 2nd added for the radials above and shower which is piggybacked form main switch in 10mm cores chopped of to get in terminal with tails At least its rcd which was a suprise, again right mess.
Your advice and views please. Two years out can knock your confidence a bit.
Thanks neil.

Think you better get someone in to do the job

2 years out shouldn't really knock your confidence because nowt has changed since then. But you seem to know your stuff. 4. Cooker socket must be within 2m either side of cooker but not directly above or in line. I would imagine this is the same for any other outlet. So move left or right. 6.if the freezer is tripping rcd it's indicating an earth leakage of some sort so why not remove the freezer and buy a new one keeping the rcd at board for sockets.1. Am I correct in saying 3 sockets are fed by 3 seperate feeds by one 16a mcb? Why not put all three on one radial?would make sense

mr enigma
thks for your reply. i am a fully qualified electrician who due to illness have not been able to work for 2 yrs. i dont think you should reply to a post in such a flippant way. i hope you never have to go through what i have in the last 2 yrs. i am just trying to get off benifits and back to earning a living for me and my family.

 

[Knobhead]

2 years is hardly any time. You obviously know the business, probably better than most. You recognise the problems and know the solutions. The garage supply is the only thing to worry about. (And I’m not going in to that argument).

It’s mainly the crap that the autocrats have piled on the s**t heap.

I would regard Mr. Enigma’s post with the derision it deserves.

electricalserv .thks for reply.
belive me 2 yrs is a long time doin nowt.thing is the skts fed from radial are all over place all on seperate runs 1 on eac run. cant rewire anything which will damage decor. just really want to have a opion on what ive proposed to do as its for assesment i think if its all labeled at cu and noted on cert assesor cant realy fault me after all i didnt wire it like that and i an improving the saftey of the installation.
thks neil

Hi ccfc, welcome to the forum. IME you will usually get helpful responses so stick with us.
Shame about the team mind

 

[Electricalserv]

I think everything you have proposed is ok apart fro
The radial situation. I'd push owner to rectify it. Even if it means surface mounting etc

 

[BES]

thks for reply tony.
i just wanted to run thing past the guys on forum and belive me its suprising how much you forget in two yrs.
cheers neil

All the best mate you will soon get your confidence back

 

[Penance]

Neil, I'm getting back in the game after nearly 15 years out, you'll be fine

 

[BES]

thks electrialserv.
yep i agrre but ive been told. DO NOT TOUCH DECOR. it isfor inlaws and you havnt seen my mother-in-law.
so the radial situation do you think its ok as per regs and just bad practice, isolation of rfc may allow people to think all skts are isolated. but do you think it wil cause me to fail assesment doing as i said.
