I've been researching this a lot lately because of a particularly awkward install. It strikes me that 'unsafe zones' would have been a better term. I'd be interested to know if 'earthed' metal conduit can be a cpc of the relevant size to the nearest socket or whether a connection to the cu is expected. Also, the 150mm from ceiling zone is proving to be quite useless in this particular property. Many windows extend to within 100mm of the ceiling and internal wall insulation is to be fitted meaning curtain rails are likely to be fitted with fixings at least 80mm long directly through the prescribed zone. Amazing channel. Only found it today and binged watched all day.
Thanks for the feedback, truly appreciated, Yes, some properties are certainly a challenge and definite head scratchers. Thanks for watching, over 200 videos available and lots more to come. Dave.
Great video, Here we must be in the middle of a 2X4 which gives us about 1.5 inches from the ends and with .5 inch drywall finish on the walls we are about 2 inches in the wall. Have not been called out to a wire that got nailed but you never know. Thanks for sharing.
Useful. How nice it (unconcealed wiring) was during olden days. The corner blocks were resting place for sparrows and hinge and hook lock type switch boxes were you hide your secret items. How easy it was for tapping new lines. How easy it was to troubleshoot visually.
Great videos, actually better than other popular channels
Thanks for watching, appreciated. We all have something to contribute, keep learning, its a good trade. Dave.

Protection by a 30mA RCD alone does not allow cables to be run diagonally
Thanks for the input Jake.
If we installed cables in armour plated, bullet proof steel conduit, people would still manage to damage to cables.
Yes Anthony, and I could name a few that I've come across. Thanks for watching. Dave.
