[QUOTE="fourtytwo, post: 529411, member: 34950"] Thank you again everybody, I had thought somehow part P insisted a full re-wire was required. I have unearthed nearly all the rubber now and it forms the backbone of the ring that runs from the downstairs CU to an upstairs bedroom then out along a very long landing to the back of the house. Just about every subsidiary spur/ring from that backbone is in pvc. Of course just about the entire up/down lighting is in rubber but a few trials show it should be possible to pull in new pvc under the existing capping to the light switches and of course fish to the ceiling roses. May I ask another question, is a new CU mandatory now if it doesn't have an RCB (underground supply with earthed sheath) ? Not that I don't think that's a good idea anyway. [/QUOTE]
