  1. normaly about 4mm
  2. 3mm diameter will do it. (as under 4mm csa)
  3. Hi, the CPC (earth wire) is 2.5mm2 so 3mm is fine.

    Have a look at this page www.aeicables.co.uk/datasheets/C7.pdf

  4. if you have 4mm use that it will still be ok
  5. 3mm or 4mm will be ok to use for the earth in a 6sq.mm twin and earth cable
  6. the 4mm will be fine
  7. maybe a 20
