hello, got a job needs a supply outside to a log cabin for a hot tub, two socket outlets and one light.

what i was thinking of doing was running 10mm 3 core armoured.

i was goin to install a ccu next to original with a 30ma rdc. split the tails, henley block.

run the armoured 600mm underground 15m max, and once in the log cabin gland off and put another 3 way consumer unit again with 30mA protection.

then in t&e 1.5 wire a swich and light

in 2.5 t&e put two sockets in.

and off the same board wire in the hot tub.

will 10mm 3 core armoured over 15m be ok?

cheers guys!

performed Ze and PFC at log cabin end,

Ze 0.36ohms

Having a socket in there is scary, full stop.

i said all this to client! he wanted it pretty much on top of tub!! NO NO!

WE agreed on it going >2m away up high by side of CCU.

I don't know about nothing much.

i wouldn't want to be involved with a job like this if i didnt know the score.

I reckon the best thing is to have the electrical supply exterrnal from the building.

IP rated lights, no sockets.

Your question has interested me.

i thought i knew the answer....i thought TT was the answer.

I was wrong.

Ive contacted a few people about your question, people who i respect. Your question is interesting.

one of the people i contacted was my college tutor.

Everyone ive spoken to so far has said a TT system is good practice in this situation.

I asked for proof to show it on here but there isn't any proof in writing.

 

[domestic spark]

ive found out either way is good?
