Hi all,
I am looking into the options for re-wirring an electric storage heater from its current location to the opposite wall of the room. A new oak floating floor is also being fitted in the room with an acoustic underlay. From what I understand to ensure there is no visible wiring, I have to create a channel in the subfloor to allow for the cables to run under the new flooring, to relocate the storage heater, as running the cables behind the skirting board is not possible. The length of the room is 3.5m and there are 7 cables in total from 4 separate points. 2 power cables, 2 cables for the switch and 3 cables for the spur, which will create a large channel in the subfloor. Can I just rewire the 2 power cables and leave the switch and spur in the original location? or do I have to move all the cables and points across to the new location? Is there anything else I need to take into consideration?
Any guidance would be much appreciated.
Thanks
