I've completely re-wired a house before (just before part P came in), but that had solid (brick) walls, and floorboards.
I'm now tackling a 1973 terrace. All internal walls upstairs are stud partition walls. Some floors are chipboard.
These are frighteningly noddy questions, but...
- How do I (efficiently and securely) install new sockets into existing partition walls?
- How do I take up chipboard floors (one of them running under a partition wall!) to route cables?
- How do I work with building control to get whatever I do certified / approved?
They'll be other building work carried out by professionals around the same time, so building inspectors will be visiting anyway.
Cheers, David.
P.S. I've just ordered the 17th edition on-site guide (I worked under
15th edition last time). I'm (not) looking forward to the new colours and new RCD/RCBO requirements.
