Are you pulling down my pantyhose? DBS swap in brown and blue............. Sounds very similar to what I would say........I promise darling I didn't search that on the Internet.:-------::-------:

they had a garage converted into a kitchen and wanted the DB in a cupboard instead of under the stairs, so extended all the circuits 2 metres and added a new DB. why question everything? are you bored

:banghead:

Looks like a few circuits on the left have been doubled up there unless they are rings, but they look like 1mm2 to me even though there are spare ways, a poor show haha

I wasnt aware that the cablw had to be secured at all in the trunking.. but thanks for the info i apprreciate that.

Not all pics uploaded

Must have taken u a while to drill that lot lol, not picking holes but if that's fire alarm should that not be p-clipped in the trunking as opposed to cable tied?

It's to give the fire alarma bit more integrity if there's a fire, you think, the PVC trunking will melt but the cable will stay in place, also stops the fire brigade strangling themselves when running around in a fire

 

[lee foster]

Don't like to be picking but you've used pastic cable ties which will melt in a fire?.

 

[Stroppy]

So the alarm cables stay intact and out of the way of the fire personnel, but all the power & light T&E still will try to garotte and electrocute them. Shouldn't everything be P-clipped then?

Indeed they would melt, but you would expect everyone to be out of the fire area by the time that happens.

well fingers crossed yeah.

Cables in trunking above door ways should really be p clipped yes but we have recently done a job and got round it by putting loops of galv all round band inside the trunking and take all the cables through it. A lot faster and saves p clipping individually which is a pain in the :-------:
