I got this message from a customer.

"I'd like to know if there is a way to get power/and or light into my garage. The issue is that it's across the street!"

I am going out to the job on Friday, but I cannot see how it can be done on the face of things.

Any ideas welcome

2 x 120 amp hour batteries £200,1000w inverter £120.00 ,regulator £35.00 , solar panel £300, wind turbine ,£495, cable socket light £100 days labour £200 may be a little more but its a very basic set up , and wouldnt supply the like of a welder ,powertools , but realy it depends on what you require to run in it , in my shed i have a 120 AH battery supplied by a 30 watt solar panel with a small home made wind turbine , this supplies power for 2 lights one inside the shed one outside the shed both are low energy fittings 28 watt 2 d HF, i am working on one to power the lights in the house ,problem is the noise from the turbine very noisy vibrates all over the place

Rogue traders dont be silly.......... crimewatch more like lol

Build your own speed hump in the street and run a cable though that!

You could go for:
Separate supply
Generator
Alternative energy source (wind turbine/solar panel)
Battery
Window/skylight.
It depends how much light is required and how extravagant the customer is, or more likely, how much they want to spend.

Put a pylon in garden, and another next garage, string a catenary wire across, job done.
And dont forget, this work will be notifiable

New supply with cutout and meter. Get the DNO to give you a quote but dont hold your breath as it usually takes ages and sit down when you open the quote it will be a lot of money.
