Electrical Inspections

Might well be TW&E, but with the earth cable hacked off. And often too few rings for modern requirments. As well as a smaller earth conductor.

On the move

Some wholesalers seemed only to stock TW&E, even where the earth wasn't required for lighting circuits. Lost count of how many times I've come across it present, but snipped off.

re wiring light switch post

Yes - but in such installations, it was usual to just cut off the earth wire if TW&E was used. Why would a pro go to the extra effort of connecting it at one end if not at the other?

Loop-in Lighting (sigh)

Easy to check - even if you can't see which reds and blacks are TW&E 'pairs'. Switch off at the mains and check which pair shorts when the switch is on and open circuits with it off using a DVM.

Source for plans?

They are links, many of the CD's are blatant rip-offs of my site, or other peoples sites, it is so bad that some sites don't even let other sites link directly to them anymore. The same links are here for free: http://absolutelyfreeplans.comFrankC
