    Help me figure out this bathroom wiring.

    We have an old consumer unit that only has a single RCD. I'll have to DIY fit a new duel RCD board later on to have the lighting circuit protected. Just kidding; I'll have an electrician come round to upgrade our board very soon.

    Help me figure out this bathroom wiring.

    Not to be that guy who asks for help and disappears without giving an update, I thought I'd say that I've completed the job. I used a colossal wago box to fit all the wires in and it's safely tucked away. I did consider coming at the wires form the top, but realised the hole in the bathroom is...

I thought of going in the loft but it's been converted into a bedroom and those cables are right...

    Help me figure out this bathroom wiring.

    I see. The lighting circuit isn't RCD protected either. Luckily, I've got a socket nearby which is RCD protected, so I'm thinking of wiring a fused spur off of it for the heated towel radiator. It still leaves me with the issue of extending the cables at the fan isolator to a new location. Is...

    Help me figure out this bathroom wiring.

    I'm renovating my bathroom and just wanting to move the extractor fan isolating switch over about a meter or so and also add a connection (fused spur) for a new electric towel radiator. I've taken a picture of the wiring at the fan isolator switch and I can't workout why there's about 4 live...
