Hi all

 

I have an old cottage and have removed a false plaster board ceiling to the hallway exposing the original beams which I would like to keep . Unfortunately, when the house was modernised much of the cabling was hidden behind the false ceiling and are now exposed. I want to re route the cables and box in along the top of one of the walls.  Do the Twin & Earth cables need to be fully separated with clips to ensure they don't overheat or can they be grouped together at all please?

 

Cables to run:  1 x 6mm T&E (cooker)

                         2 x 2.5mm T&E

                         3 x 4mm T&E

                          2 x 6mm single core cables  

 

Many thanks

And bear in mind the fire implications, cables should be supported with metal clips so in the event of a fire they don't hang down endangering fire fighters.
