Hi, rhis has probably been done to death, but I couldn't find much on a search...
Doing a garage conversion. CU recently replaced at ceilling height. New 25mm tails + earth currently run vertically up wall in 50x50 maxi trunking. Was hoping we'd be ok to leave and just plasterboard up to sides of trunking. Wishful thinking of course!
25 or 16mm SWA not gonna work due to routing and bend radius issues.
Thinking of going down the mechanical protection route, and using some of this as an unearthed shield.
Might earth it as a precaution, but doesn't seem to be required by this particular reg, but could be argued that it's a metallic part of wiring system so should be earthed?
Any thoughts please?
