Title: Ring or Radial Post by UltraSpark on Sep 26th, 2006, 4:52pm Hi all, We have just started work on wiring some new builds and all power cct have been specified as radials and not rings. I think they use radials in europe its only us in the UK that like using rings. Is this going to be the new norm in the UK? I'm sure I heard something about the ring being phased out or becoming the less prefered method. Has anyone else heard anything simlar? |
