Historical Wiring.

Zoomup

The old days where house main earthing leads were green 6.0mm2. Ring "mains" were wired in 2.5mm2 T&E with 1.0mm2 earth continuity conductors. And the use of plastic oval conduit in plaster was common.

Is this compliant? Please see picture.

    I once rewired a house that had 60s wiring or thereabouts. On stripping out the old cables under plastic capping I noted the cable runs. Where I was worried about picture nails in wall along "safe zones" some were pierced and some had missed, mostly the missed ones were where great use of diagonals or wiggly wiring was used. However many of them had been pierced along the diagonals and wigglies too where unexpected
