Enclosure.

[baggy61]

All connections are to be in an enclosure. Does a plasterboard ceiling below a beam and block floor count. If not why not.
Ta muchly.

it's not an enclosure. it's a void.

 

[baggy61]

Thanks.
I was thinking of heat and smoke containment, in as you say a void, but if it's only approx 100mm deep so not accessable to people, what difference does a plastic choc box make.

 

[telectrix]

because you would be enclosing your joint in a joint box which is a part of your installation, not part of the building fabric.

So if I made a box of plasterboard...?

 

[Sharpend]

It'd probably cost you more than a choc box!, let alone take longer?
