  1. Self adhesive trunking is great. Mostly because the damn trunking stays in place while one drills hole through it to attach it securely. Most trunking self adhesive is not really meant for permanent fixing, although with a properly prepared surface and time for the adhesive to cure before bearing weight a good quality adhesive should last a long time.

  2. Nice neat job but, unless I am missing something, the use of singles inside trunking isn't compliant with regulations since trunking is designed to be opened without a tool thus exposing the single insulated conductors. Conduit would have been more appropriate since that prevents access to the conductors.

  3. I dont understand why she paid an electrician to put up some conduit? Surely if she's done the whole wall herself she's more than capable of putting some conduit up? Personally I'd have ran the conduit down vertically to under the floorboards – but some planning as they were doing the wall would've been invaluable.

  4. I have been tempted to run them own under the floorboards to make it a neater finish but at least its a safer installation now. Though I did wonder why there are so many cores in the left hand spured socket or have they extended the original cables inside the old wall box?.
