So, are plastic cable clips and cleats completed banned from use anywhere on an 18th ed installation now?
Do I have to chuck my stock away?
If still permissible to use, then where and when?
If not, how would one go about securing a run of NYY to a light fitting on the corner of a beautiful stone detached house without resorting to the use of steel conduit, galv cable tray secured with resin or expansion anchors//SWA and steel ty-wraps which I'm sure the customer would be delighted with?
The proposed cable will run from an existing light fitting over the front door so I guess it is part of an escape route too.
What were they thinking of when they got together to come up with this nonsense?
I suppose plastic wall plugs are out too! If so, what are the alternatives?
Anyone out there with a definitive answer? Or are we moribund in a world of ifs and maybes?
The IET is carrying out some important updates between 17-30 April and all of our websites will be view only. For more information, read this Announcement
