I want to wire the "typical" up/down lights half way up the front of a house to light it up in several places. The house is going to be fully K Rendered after wiring it.
1. Can I run the wires across the walls down the front of the house as it is going to be rendered and these cables wont be seen afterwards? Is that allowed in regulation? If it is in regulation do I follow the same as we do for sockets inside the house (ie: no diagonals) straight lines up/down/left/right of light fitting and cable within 150mm of edge of walls?
2. Can I do it in 1.5mm Twin and Earth like all other lighting? I have read that Twin and Earth outside is a no no but since K Rend will go over the top immediately after will I be allowed to use it in this case?
If the answer is no then please suggest what cable I can use along the walls to go under render.
