Hi All,
Im just setting out planning of a metal fabrication workshop in a old factory i have taken ownership of. There is already a board providing multiple 3 phase sockets in the space, but not to where i now need my machines. The system is currently singles in a suspended galv box conduit. Im looking to change this to a 200mm basket set up as this will follow the ceiling more closely as all space is needed. it will also allow for easier adjustment if machines are moved.
Im looking at using univolt basket set up. Obviously I cant run singles in the basket, What level of additional sheathing do i need. Should it all be SWA cables, or can it be unarmoured 5 core, or can i run singles in PVC solid / flexi conduit. Im looking for the most economy option as i have a lot to do and not a huge budget.
Im sure plenty more questions will follow, and appreciate any help you can throw my way.
Thanks
Jamie
