Discuss SWA/SY cable in a fibre duct in the UK Electrical Forum area at ElectriciansForums.net

Hey all

My thoughts then.....

Fibre is the 10mm+ protected stuff. Belongs to the fibre company (but are they gonna care?)... New duct, dead straight. Pull rope probably put in at the same time as the duct.
Yes, likely to be wrapped around the fibre, but careful pulling might yeild results.
Only issue is the duct heads outside the property, I would have to dig down in the soil by the perimeter (I know exactly where it is) and somehow break into it without compromising it. Difficult to do. Don't want the duct filling with water.

Conduit. Bit of a faff to be honest. No fixings except on the posts (the middle verticals are angled galv). I also would need to set around each post as they stick out further.

Tray. I think this might be the way forward. I give us the ability to add SWA at a later date for car chargers etc.
Metal tiewraps and place it at the bottom of the fence (about 12" up). Reversing cars should be OK at that height.
it's a very high fence and we have not had people in the yard yet, just outside (throwing stuff into the yard and fly tipping/drug dealing).

If they want to steal it, they will.
