I was always taught that twin and earth cables should be used in domestic only and singles/multicore in commercial?
Why is that ? I mean there isn't anything wrong with using 1.5mm2 twin and earth with 1.0mm2 CPC for lighting circuits.

Chris Pearson:
It depends what you mean by “commercial”. As opposed to industrial, I would include shops and small offices, which might even have been converted from housing. Then there are official residences like embassies or palaces.
What is, IMHO, inappropriate is T&E in conduit (galvanised or PVC).
Very common in schools, T&E on basket then galv drops to sockets
