My flat is at the back of a converted house. The meters and a 60A switch-fuse are in the front hall and there is a 16mm2 T&E feed to my CU. This needs to be replaced as it runs through the adjacent flat in what will be an inconvenient location (so they will pay some of the cost).
The new routing involves feeding a cable under a suspended floor and because of finishes etc it cannot be clipped. Am I right in thinking that a PVC cable lying on the subfloor (as at present) is not going to be acceptable and it should therefore be SWA? And would there be any good reason to make it more than 16mm2 - flat is gas heated so not much elec used.
If it is to be SWA I'm proposing to get the cable in place myself and get a professional to do the terminating.
