Interestingly I was over at a ladies house today, invied over to quote for hre new kitchen electrics. Its afalt with concrete ceiling as well with concrete floors. There will be a need to extend cooker cable (10mm) about 1 metre. As far as I am concerned I have few choices, the cable cannot be pulled, theer is no access to cable above within concrete ceiling, no access to space abve at all.
Choices are ;
(a) a junction box on the wall exposed, that wil lok really nice in the new kitchen (not!), or
(b) crimp extension test and heat shrink sleeve over each joint. Test again, insert junction into Choxbox and fit into cavity where old cooker unit was and plaster it up then it will be tiled over. If its against the regs so what, the regs would have us make peoples houses look like battleships!
Job done, one happy customer and should it ever go wrong in the future then to me thats no different to any other cable break problem.
