Micc or FP200 cable in chapels or churches ?

KRB15

Hello, looking for an answer to who decides if a chapel / church needs to wired in MICC cable or will FP200 be adequate ? I appreciate it should be fire resistant and MICC is smaller and looks great if installed properly , but I cant find any guidance anywhere

    I have modified and added to wiring in a  small listed C of E church and it was done in T&E. I do not think there is any particular rule and is probably dependent on the insurer and the significance of the building. I did quote for rewiring it in MICC  and replacing all the lighting but it was too expensive so it still has T&E, no fire alarm and oil fired heating 15 years later. The C of E have a department that look after their estate, you would have to ask the vicar about contact details. I was told, after I had completed the work, that I should not have been authorised to do the work as I was not registered with a particular trade organisation. 

    No idea about other denominations but would have expected them to all have an estates department.
