New way to wire lighting circuits

Former Community Member
Former Community Member
Hello,


Does anyone know anything about a new rule to wire lighting circuits so that they have a live, neutral and earth running the full length of the circuit? I heard something about this last year but cannot pinpoint it in the 18th Edition Regs.


Apparently, a light now has to be wired so that the neutral running to the switch is USED as a neutral, and not as a switched live.


Anyone else heard of this?


Thanks,


David

    If AFDDs are mandated, I could see lots of fellas being tempted to combine circuits such as lightning via a spur from a ring. That way only one AFDD is required instead of two!
