    PVC conduit at ground level external

    Quick one. Is there anything in the regs that state safe zones for external placement of pvc conduit ? I've looked and can't see anything specific. Reason I ask is the installation I'm doing is needing me to run conduit at one brick above damp course.

One of the tasks is to wire a 220v circuit for a garage heater a couple feet from a flush mount service panel.

    Are unnecessarily installed conduit seals required to be poured by code?

    In the oil and gas industry (working around hazardous areas), I commonly see conduit seals in places that they should not have been installed, but not being able to wait for the conduit to be re-done due to project startups, the seals are left as they were installed. Oftentimes, these do not get...

    Getting 2 x 2.5mm into oval conduit?

    I am continuing my practising today and am trying to get 2 x 2.5mm into oval conduit. It's not as easy as I thought it would be. First of all I used some old cable that I had all twisted up ready to be scrapped. No way was this going to go through either the 20mm or the 25mm conduit. I then...

    Best way to run cables in conduit

    I have a 20mm steel conduit drop to an accessory box buried in the wall. It was previously used for lighting cables and had 2 x 1.5 t+e and 1 x 1.5 3+e squeezed into it. There is no actual conduit system installed - the conduit simply goes into the loft and ends. There is some kind of rubber...

    Running Network cable next to power cable?

    So the electrician made a hole in the outside wall to run the cable for the floodlights and in the same hole he threaded through the CAT 6 cable (shielded outdoor cable) for the POE camera. Is this safe as I always thought you do not run network cable in the same conduit as electrical cables?

    Burying 2.5mm ring circuit cable under concrete floor in flexi conduit

    What is your view about such an installation technique? Asked to finish extension wiring and the installer has snaked wire all over the floor in white flexi.
