    Conduit through brick wall

    An IP rated adaptable box fixed to the outside wall would look neater and gland your SWA into that. Then just bring your supply from your house to the adaptable box. And a short stab of conduit into the back of the box with a bush and coupler to protect cable through wall if your feeling fancy.

    18th on its way,hey hey

    I really don't understand what everyone is getting so excited about. Why are some people getting semi erect over the latest edition of the regs coming out...? I won't be too happy to hand over ££££ just for another piece of paper saying I've done the latest BS7671. Who cares

    Am I too old at 29 to start an apprenticeship

    I was on site with an apprentice who was 32 last year. I agree with the post above, night college and work as a electricians mate.

    Swa Banjo?

    There was some really nice Pyro work on that job and the new EX rated emergency stop buttons were a fraction of the size of the original equipment ex emergency buttons. And I bet they last a fraction as long as well. All the old gear had "Made In Great Britain" on it :)
