RE: EIB installation

Tim,

By standard wiring I mean, as per IEE regulations i.e ring mains, spurs
etc.
I'm not sure what is expected in terms of the wiring being signed of by the
elecricity board.

Martin,

Just before I dive in with some comments, what exactly do you mean when you
talk about "standard" wiring. If you wire for A.N.Other hardwired
system;
CBus, Polaron etc. you can revert to standard switches & sockets by
removing
your intelligent, centrally-located kit and replacing with connecting
blocks
(for want of a better description).

Or, if it's really a problem, run two lots of mains cables (e.g. CBus and
'standard' configurations) and only connect up the second lot when you come
to sell.

Cheers,

Tim.
