Outside Power

[whazza22]

Looking to put some power to an outside shed with is approximately 5m away from the house.

Only problem I have, is that the cable needs to pass through the kitchen to get outside, but has a concrete floor.

Would it be best to run twin and earth under the floorboards to the kitchen, then chase steel conduit into the concrete floor (which will be screeded and tiled). I can then put a 90 degree bend up the wall and drilll through to outside. Could put a waterproof adaptable box on the outside and join to an swa.

Any thoughts?

Suggestions welcomed

Thanks

Good point, but this can be discussed with the client and the limitations with coming from an existing circuit explained,as long as they understand this they are likely to welcome the cost savings......this is just a light and a socket in a shed after all.

if you do the joint outside use a galve U box look very neat and compact and can be sealed
