Site fabricated wooden trunking/capping
Former Community Member
Saw this in a wooden summerhouse, the owner has created his own wooden capping to conceal the cables of a ring final circuit. I was wondering if this might create a safe zone issue where it runs along the bottom edge of the room. The cable is obviously not "buried in a wall at a depth < 50mm but could somebody inadvertently screw something to it. Is it concealed wiring or wooden trunking? Would it get a code if doing a EICR?
Thanks for the replies. I cant help thinking 102 might be more fitting than 103, the "trunking" has actually been routed out with a void about twice the volume of the cable so cable would be touching wall or covered with air. Valid point though as winter use could load the circuit up with heaters. 25A MCB might be a good idea.
