Hi Guys.
Hopefully straightforward question with a similar answer.
My Mum is having a power supply put in from her CU in her bungalow to her shed and greenhouse. She has had a sparks come round and quote and is coming round later this month do do the job.
I have asked about the job and apparently he is just going to attach the cable to a plastic water pipe that lays on the floor and goes down the side of the property. I have asked what size and type of cable and she is unsure of size but believes is will be SWA. The run will be around 50 metres
I was a bit concerned that it is just going to lay on the surface with no other protection.
Is this acceptable although not best practice, or is it definitely breaking the regs?
Thanks for any input.
