Wiring a 5 bedroom house

[omoeko]

Hello Everyone,

I am not sure of the etiquette here on the forum, but I would like to start by extending warm greetings to everyone in the house. This forum is very useful for me and I have learnt a lot from it.

I would like to ask a question, its about the list of materials required to wire a 5 bed house. I have the list below, and would like to know if its correct etc.

3/4 double sockets per bedroom, and everywhere will have spot lights apart from the bedrooms. I also plan to use a double electric oven, which is rated at 4,400W and hence a 6mm cable needs to be used. The distance is about 10m from the board to the kitchen. Below are the oven specification.

Energy efficiency class (2010/30/EC) - cavity 2 : A Energy consumption per cycle forced air convection - cavity 2 (2010/30/EC) : 0.80 Energy efficiency index (2010/30/EC) : 112.9 Energy efficiency index cavity 2 (2010/30/EC) : 94.1 Electrical connection rating (W) : 4400 Current (A) : 20 Voltage (V) : 240 Frequency (Hz) : 50

Not read all the replies... but non fire rated downlights?

Might not need to be.

not necessary unless the ceiling is the boundary of a fire compartment. e.g. in a garage with a room above, or if the room/s above are separate dwellings.

[buzzlightyear]

I am not doing the work myself, as i am not an electrician. Just want to ensure that the list of materials is somewhat correct, as i supply the materials to the sparkie.

yeah, how much can I save
ask jack and the bean stork.

 

[Dave OCD]
