This isnt acceptable headbang

BS7671 2008, Part P building regulations.

Common problem when you work with muppets who know nothing and are too thick skinned to take any advise.

Just ask them a simple question.

How do you conform to the regulations when a cable is buried in a wall less than 50mm deep?

If they go doh just as Homer simpson would then tell them thay need to comply or else they are just like all the other know it all cowboys.

 
RCDS for:-

buried cables... 522.6.7

not under supervision of skilled persons... 522.6.7

metallic stud wall constuctions... 522.6.8

page 100 & 101 big red book!

or page 21 onward in On site guide.

3.6.1 Protection by an RCD.

HTH
