Last night in the pub, a few buddies and i where discussing 17th edition-as you do!.
We have a major split.
Replacing a broken 2G socket in the kitchen. Old style cartridge fusebox under stairs, cables in wall-normal.
and replacing a light fitting as well
The big disagreement,- Under new 17th edition, when i replace that socket face (electrcial outlet), i take responsibility for that circuit area and it should be rcd protected.
So therefore before even a single socket is replaced the fusebox has to be uprated.
What do you lot think?
