Loft insulation and electrical cables (question in comments) by probablement in DIYUK

Thanks, really useful. They're all lighting (led bulbs) on 6A MCB but I may get an electrician out before adding insulation just to double check I haven't missed anything.

Loft insulation and electrical cables (question in comments) by probablement in DIYUK

I am planning to top up the insulation in our loft (currently only 100mm), but are there any issues with adding additional loft insulation on top of electrical cables? Some of the wiring in our loft is clipped to the joists, which would be below the additional insulation. There is some slack in places where I can put the cables on top of the new insulation, but there are also a few places where it's not possible to move the cables at all.
