    I'm just wondering about the trays, but will the 3x2.5 flat cable fit in such a tray? The round wire will come in without a problem, but it is more expensive in the castorama, I looked at it, 3x2.5 round costs PLN 5 per meter.


    Go to any electrical wholesaler and buy it for 2.50 meters.

    Fair point, but who has the time and nerves for that when another job and another inspector is about to take place. There's nothing like an inspector from ZE who always goes along with him ;)

    Hello,
    I've been following this discussion since the topic was created. Maybe not 100 but 90% marcint2525 is right. Łukasz-O writes that he is going to get along with the inspector from ZE. I wouldn't be so sure. They all know each other, it's the energy mafia. I did this installation recently. According to the project, it was necessary to lead a 3x1.5mm cable to the bathroom for lighting. brought. The lighting point was 40 cm from the planned shower cubicle, the inspector measured it with a measure and ordered to move the point by another 20 cm. Switches 1.1 m above the ground (+/- 3 cm!) sockets bathroom 60 cm, kitchen 1.20, other 60 cm. According to him, it was wrong, the differences were really 3 - 5 cm. He dropped it, didn't pick it up. The owner called the second and third and already at the threshold they shouted "corrected? if not, nothing here for me"

Topic summary

The discussion revolves around the installation of electrical wiring in a ground floor apartment, specifically debating the use of YDYp cables with different cross-sections (3x1.5 mm² vs. 3x2.5 mm²) and whether to use conduit or not. Participants express concerns about the structural conditions, such as cracked screed and roofing felt, which may affect the installation. Recommendations include using 3x2.5 mm² cables for socket circuits, considering the installation of a conduit for easier cable replacement, and the potential use of plastic cable trays for future modifications. The importance of adhering to electrical regulations and standards is emphasized, with some participants advocating for stronger cable options to prevent issues related to load capacity and safety.
