regarding 4mm2 cable was it ever available in the old colours with solid conductors rather than the 7 strands version? Ive just done a pre - inspection of a property before doing an EICR and found 2 radial circuits fed from 32A MCBS. The cables appear to be larger than 2,5mm2 . I'm going back to inspect this property with a view to reducing the MCB's to 20A if if they are 2.5mm2. I'm also taking a Vernier gauge to measure the cable diameters and compare to reference tables.
The installation is approximately 30 years old but is in very good condition.
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
