Best books for understanding Part P domestic wiring

Anonymous user 09/03/2024 - 2.46 PM

Hi, I was decorating a room in my 1950's end of terrace at the weekend and found a nightmare behind one of the sockets, cracked insulation, additional non standard wiring and loose earth leads. I replaced the socket and disconnected the additional wiring but that still leaves the cracked insulation and means the house will need a full rewire, I'm fairly certain. I will not be doing the work but am a techie, so want a good book on Part P domestic wiring so I can understand the subject and the approach to how it should be done, i.e. coping with solid floors, socket positions, cable runs etc.
