What Stockport wiring is usually like
Stockport is a mix of Victorian and Edwardian terraces around Heaton Moor, Heaton Chapel and Edgeley, 1930s semis out towards Bramhall and Cheadle and newer flats in the town centre. The older stock is where we see the most work: rubber or fabric-covered cable still buried in walls, no earthing to the lighting circuits and rewired kitchens spurred off ring mains that were never designed for them. If your fuse board is a grey or cream box with rewireable fuses rather than switches, it predates modern regs and won’t have RCD protection.
