lol you couldn't make this up could you?
i want to run an armoured cable from the db to 2 sheds at the back of the garden, approx 30m away. are there any rules or regs i need to know about?
I think somebody could, and is doing.
What I mean is, is it just not the 'correct' way to do it? Can I still do it that way?
All u keep saying is that's its not right n basically it's dangerous, u aren't actually telling me what I want to know which is how i do It then......thought that was the whole point of this forum, to get help??
People aren't telling you BECAUSE its dangerous. If you have half an idea you might actually try it.
i wired the rest of my house n had a qualified spark come over n test n sign it off so I'd like to give this a go, just need bit of help please. Well he shouldn't have done.....why dont you take shed advice of this guy instead ?
It's bloody winding me uppretty sure this is a wind up anyway.
I have a recently lawn laid down in between the house n shed n don't want to dig that up so what are my options?
This is not a wind up, just someone trying to get some help n advice on how to do something as I can't afford to get someone in. I explained exactly what I did to wire the house to the electrician n he said it was very good n all to regs. Ive been an electrical mate before whch is why i had a good idea of how to wire the basics in a house. I just haven't done anything exterior before. I've phoned a few electrical companies who have given me quotes n said I'd basically need a 2.5mm armoured for this job n length of run. I said the lawn is new so don't wanna take that up so what other way of doing it is there?
Thanks for answering the question I asked about cable selection, the answer is obviously ring a contractor and do what they plucked out of thin air. In 30 years in the trade I don't think I have ever discussed what cable I propose to use with a client, them asking the question would immediately start alarm bells ringing with me.I've phoned a few electrical companies who have given me quotes n said I'd basically need a 2.5mm armoured for this job n length of run.
