[QUOTE="Doc Hudson, post: 463106, member: 1607"] Basically you just need to evaluate the simplest and most cost effective solution. It is a question that could have half a dozen or more possible answers that all comply with BS7671. Whichever method you chose, you need to make sure all cables are suitable for the load they are going to carry, And they have appropriate overload and shock protection, And any joints are in suitable enclosures with either maintenance free or accessible connections dependant upon their location. It may be more cost effective to run a longer cable to an easily accessible point rather than trying to find an unknown inaccessible point that is very close but a pain in the rear to find. BS7671 is actually very flexible in many applications and as the saying goes there is more than one way to skin a cat! Don't start thinking that wiring regs only allow one correct solution!. Doc H.
