Briselec, you can put any outlet you like on a 1mm cable.

True but I tend to ignore that fact and still work to the rules in the previous edition of the wiring rules regarding GPOs.

I've never understood why they have a table of minimum cable size and then say "but you can use smaller sizes". That doesn't make sense to me.

1mm cable de-rates heavily as soon as it hits thermal insulation ( batts) etc. A 10A breaker should only be used on short 1mm TPS runs where there is no thermal insulation involved.


1mm is rated at 10A when partially surrounded in thermal insulation
