    I've bought some 2.5mm sq twin and CPC from screwfix for extending a radial power circuit. 2.5mm sq is for all 3 conductors.

    I only realised when it was sent out that the CPC was 2.5mm sq.

    The existing is 2.5mm sq LINE and NEUTRAL with a 1.5mm CPC.

    Is there a problem mixing the size of the CPC?

    Sufficiently low earth fault loop imperial is what matters.
