Which conduit ?

[Aindowsimon]

Galv will be easier to dress along 200yards than swa

 

[ChrisElectrical88]

SWA into galv t boxes with a stuffing gland at each fitting for me please? Volt drop will need to be considered as mr B stated.

 

[ChrisElectrical88]

MICC would be best...

 

[Guest569]

5x 80w LEDs , so minimal load.. thinking 1.5mm should be ok but will likely run 2.5 to be safe. Not even sure contactor will be required , may split load into 2 DTD or perhaps even one will do need to check switching load been while since fitted one ?

1.5? 200 mtrs? hmm

 

[Guest569]

starting to think armour would be pretty quick , 2 men cherry picker , chalk line , hold , clip hold, hold , clip ....gland...box light , hold clip hold clip...

At my pace Ill rattle 200 yards in a day ;P

1.5? 200 mtrs? hmm

200 yards , around 180m , but like I said will likely do 2.5 anyway

Or be in the pub by lunch, and use a laser level

 

[Guest569]

quoting around 4k including VAT,

Require x5 80w LEDs, few drums or armour or conduit plus singles, accessories etc.

Cherry picker for 1 week , all very basic runs and routes ....

what you think ?

 

[High Tower]

FP is useless as far to soft!, galv would be my choice, if it's a straight run then it's about 65 lengths, with a thro box every 9m, you can get away with saddling galv on a horizontal plain every 800, where as SWA will need clipping every 300 on the horizontal, two of us could put that lot up and have it wired in 3 days.

SWA is your other alternative but be warned, 6x2.5 and 3x 1.5 conductors in a t box will be bordering on a bit tight.

next on my toy list

Would probably pay for itself on this job alone if your price is correct.

Well without actually costing the materials myself I cannot confirm the price either way, however first impression it seems a good quote actually, works out about 3,250 ish plus vat.

3" galv tray on stand-offs then cable tie SWA. future proofing for any new cable runs.:drool5:
