Who needs prescribed zones anyway?😏

Live cables left plastered in a bathroom wall. Only came to light when the client removed a mirror and was doing some filling and the RCD tripped.

Looks like a disused feed for a mirror light.

Is that a looped N ?

I have seen some very strange lighting where you have 1 SL but a pair of Ns at the light
I didn't have time to investigate fully in the loft, but seems to be a junction box above, with SL and N coming down, and then the extra wire from the N block to the earth block on the (metal) light fitting.

Half of the property in VIR that is falling apart, and the new part with all CPC cut short, or not connected at source.

Fortunately a bungalow, so lighting rewire should be relatively painless.

Sounds like a method of wiring using sheathed singles that I see commonly round here. Line loops from switch to switch, neutral from light to light, with a SL from switch to light.
