Hi all,
New year greetings and let's hope this insidious Covid (currently isolating) comes to an end this year.
I've checked the other shed power threads but they don't cover my question, I'm currently building a log cabin pub in my garden and will need power for approximately six double sockets ringed to a cu in the shed. One of these will power a twin line chiller but I haven't bought it yet so I don't know the draw to do an accurate calculation, the remaining sockets will power a table light and bar pump lights. I'll also be having three pendant lights above the bar and one centre main light.
I'll be using 2.5 metre SWA which I'd like to connect to a CU 18 metres away in my garage, at present this CU powers one double socket and one small strip light both seldom used. The garage CU is connected directly to the main fuse box in the house, however, I have no access to get to the back of the fuse box to run the feed from there which would be my preferred method.
My question is would this be safe and acceptable? I know that this is part p notifiable so I will be getting a qualified spark to sign it off but I'd welcome any help and guidance as money is extremely tight at the moment so I need to do as much of the ground work as possible myself.
