I was gunna run some twin core straight to my consumer unit but im in a rented house and if I ever have leccy inspection I dont want to have to explain what the unlabled breaker is for.So as it happens we recently had our water heater tookout upstairs and they very helpfully left me this IMG_20170131_133636.jpg 118.17KB 0 downloads
Anyway im fairly sure im ok to run some twin core inbetween the stud partitions into the loft to a couple of double sockets being ninja as fuck lol.But I just wanna query it on here to see what people think safety first an all that,id ask a sparky at work but I dont want to bring any attention on myself.
Cheers BC.

Sound cheers pal,no need for a mini consumer unit in the loft is there?.Tbf the 32a breakers gunna be overkill my max power usage is about a kw and thats mainly my oil rad in winter lolIt's already on a 13A spur then, yeah I'd run 2.5mm straight off that spur then dude.
Swap that short length of 4mm out and straight up. Jobs a gudgeon.
