RE: Lighting Regs WAS: New UK Building Regs. Will Outlaw DIY Wiring

[Frost Neil <Neil.Frost@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I've rewired the lighting in my house (as well as the rest of it) and have
put 240v halogens in every room, in the lounge I've put them on two
circuits
as there are a lot of them.

In the bathroom there ISN'T one above the shower but they are around the
rest of the room. I knew you would have to put a specific light above the
shower so there is one to the left and in front of it but not above.

SWMBO was happy enough but got wondering if it was safe...

Yep - what are you specifically thinking of.

There are no regulations with regard to lighting, except to special
locations which is part 6 of the BS7671 refering to bathrooms etc.

This got me thinking...

Under current regulations, is it possible to have ALL lighting either low
voltage halogen and/or 240v halogen?
