OP
Thank you all for your kind comments and Tel thanks for that extra input!
I have run all the cables clipped direct 400mm above finished floor (insulation) level, well into the eaves space, and I am labelling them as I go, every 5m. For me, with no time constraints, it is great fun...but I do appreciate what you professionals have to do,day in day out!
Today, I fitted 2 water heaters. They are on a ring, but I haven't tested them yet as the spark has to terminate the cables to the DB. I was thinking...if I wago the "return" end, to isolate it, I could treat the circuit as a radial, spur it off a socket temporarily, and run the heaters for a test, just to make sure they work? They are POU 2kw units. The DB has an islolator, and I am ok to test for dead at the socket before connecting.
Talking of eaves space, many years ago I was into estate agency. I would visit the house, take the measurements and photographs, and record a narrative for the secretary to type...
The draft schedule for one house came back to me for checking, and this is what it said:
"The Master Bedroom has a comprehensive range of built-in wardrobes, with access to Eve's behind"...
Ah, those days...
