Floor power sockets and cable runs

Lay a bit of waste pipe, and thread the cables in later. The cables must be removable for future maintance, when you drill the floor one day.

I would get an electrician who is familiar with installing screwed steel conduit systems to come and lay the boxes for you, linked with steel conduit. This is the proper way of doing it, and then the conduit doesn't need to be deeper than 2" below the floor surface (which sounds like it would be difficult if the screed is only 2"). If the BCO doesn't see it before the screed goes down, make sure you take some pictures.

If you are sticking that close to the regulations, they must also be

BTW there is no requirement to have cabling removable.

Thanks guys, had my hands full after my previous post. Sacked my plumbe

for doing a shoddy job and ended up having to do a double line partition wall that my buiilder was going to charge me £1000 for. O top of that do my day job. Well I laid down the cable, steel conduit and the boxes, the BCO cam and passed the first fix. Great. We can now lay the 3 inch - Little bi more than I thought - screed.

Once again thanks. David
