Hi.
I am after some advice please in regard to outdoor lighting.
I have a run of armoured cable running the length of my garden to a summer house. The cable is on the far right side of my garden buried under a hedge.
I am have a garden overhaul which is a new patio and new pathways. I would like to have outdoor lighting to the patio.
For the uneducated like myself, I would assume I could spur off the existing armoured cable with smaller lighting armoured cable by the way of a junction box?
I'm sure there is more to it than that, so could you adcise me on the best course of action please.
I want to put the cable in before the new path is laid to avoid having to take it up again after.
What size cable would I need and is there a special junction box I can buy to enable me to join the existing run of cable. There is a seperate consumer unit for the summer house if that makes any difference.?
