That's it. I vote for a furze tunnel under every house where you can put all your wiring across the entire house with ease!! And large thick conduits inside the bricks themselves so you can stuff 10 cables if you wanted to, to specific points.

So long as it is not powdered you should be fine, but PVA would sort that out in emergencies together with PPE, double bag the suspected material before proper disposal. On big jobs it’s worth getting a sample tested and consider specialist removal.

That board under the kitchen appliances serves 2 purposes, the main purpose would be to level the floor, the other purpose is to provide a basic fire barrier for the bitumen tiles underneath, they burn with a thick black smoke and won't stop burning once ignited!

@metrotechguru5863 2 года назад

The tricky part is that not all of them contain asbestos. The only way to truly know is to have them tested. Otherwise, it's best to remove them as best as possible without breaking them up. Airborne particles inhaled can lead to cancer.

@user-super-user 11 месяцев назад

For rewires like this its a good idea to mount an old fuseboard onto a wooden board with a load of double sockets. That way you can run anything you need to keep running from extension leads Its always a good idea to completely isolate the whole install and connect the tempory directly to the incomer. Plus if you leave plenty on the tails for the temp board you can take it from job to job

@artisanelectrics 2 года назад

😳

@davidclarke2513 Год назад

Not being funny mate but looking at that chase you just showed me it looked like your chase went through your switch and onto your socket outlet when you cannot go through the switchbox with your socket supply cables,and don't tell me that the chase was at the side of the switch because I could see the square knocked out for the switch had the chase running through it ?

@NBundyElectrical Год назад

The chase is deeper than the switch and it runs behind it, there were 3 cables going up to the loft , so they wouldn’t have fit in the patress if I’d tried

@muckychimney 2 года назад

Given the age of the house those floor tiles in the kitchen under the ply would more than likely have contained Asbestos - no PPE when taking them up Nick ! SMH ..... first rule of thumb is always check for ACM in any house that dates back pre 2000.

@williamarmstrong7199 2 года назад

I have seen simalar on company computer networks. Organic growth without any planning or updating of existing infrastructure. Sometimes you have to bite the bullet and restart from scratch installing not what the customer thinks they need now but what they will definatly need in the near future. In electricians area this means EV charging and posiblely PV and home battery requirements. Assuming the customer can be pursuaded to cover the slight extra cost.

@henrytwigger2245 2 года назад

@sward86 2 года назад

I've recently done several chases in my walls in order to run CAT6, however the majority of chasers, including mine only chase max 30mm. Problem I have is I want to use 20mm conduit, but the 20mm knockouts on 30/47mm back boxes are too far back. Is it easier to holesaw holes closer to front of back boxes OR chase deeper, if so how?

@alexacb63 2 года назад

You need to be a little careful, guidance is not to chase deeper than 1/3 the leaf thickness - if it's an old brick wall the thickness is around 100mm, at which point depending on plaster thickness you probably can't chase much deeper than 30mm anyway...

@codenamenel 2 года назад

Just use 25mm boxes, why do you need deep ones just for data points ?

@lewis94uk 2 года назад

Be easier just to bend a set into the conduit to bring it to the front

@Daniells1982 2 года назад

Can u not use oval conduit rather than 20mm round conduit so your chases aren't as deep?

@sward86 2 года назад

It's not just CAT6, it's coax, speaker wire. I would prefer to use round conduit incase my needs case and need to run more/new cable. Also hence why I need the deeper backboxed as I will using Euro modules
