Shed to shed which cable?

[diyterry]

Hello, I hope you're all keeping well. I'd like to replace the electrical cable which runs overhead for three metres between my two sheds, what type of cable should I use?

 

[telectrix]

electric cable, of course..

H07 flex with a catenary wire if overhead. But always better to go underground with an swa.

Your Electrician will source the cable for you.

I’m wondering whether the existing cable has deteriorated because of UV, whether it’s been driven into, or perhaps the missus keeps on using it as a clothes line?

If you use bell wired then this will help with the drying of the clothes...

Well, someone used a length of 2.5mm twin core and earth cable in a hosepipe buried 2 inches below ground and yesterday my wife thinking it was a tree root cut through it with a pair of loppers.
