[QUOTE="Rob_the_rich, post: 457177, member: 8419"] I cant find the part B 2000 amd 2002 volume 1 of the building regs, although I have volume 2 on my hard drive relating to non-domestic. Intumescent hoods have been a requirement much earlier than 2000 though, to keep the fire rating of the ceiling being compromised by drilling holes in it. So, have a look with your phone as Sharpend says and see if there is concrete or floorboards above the void, and possibly the cable to your intransigent light fitting is snagged on a hood. [/QUOTE]
