I’m looking to fix a previous install. After having some rendering I have a feed that’s in 10mm T&E and I’m looking to replace the conduit. The gate is being replaced. I’m just looking for an adaptable box that I can have conduit come out the front.

I’ve decided to have the conduit come out from a Wiska box go down the side of the house and then across the gate with a length of conduit into another Wiska box and then another length into an Adaptable Box and go into the rear into the Garage and into the sub main board.

Any help or advice would be great.

He’s just dropping it off the help me out. He’s got one, I wouldn’t mind buying my own. Then I have one for future use.
I've been using an f4p one from cef for a few years. Cheap and cheerful and does the job fine. Think it was about 30 quid at the time
 
I still need to order the galvanised conduit and boxes. I was thinking about possibly getting someone to do it. I don’t mind having a go myself as we don’t use it in our line of work. Fire and Security. My mate also let me down with his Conduit Bender.

I’m also planning to paint it White, is there anything I will need other than some Hammerite Paint? Does it need to be rubbed down etx?
 
Would be so much tidier burying it, but I understand wanting to expand your practical experience.

Hammerite can be painted onto anything really, but if you’re painting boxes and lids, it will be difficult to remove the lids in future.
