Hello all,
Just done a c/u change but had to disconnect the shed supply as had really low readings on IR and cable was rubberised so is probably persished underground somewhere. Customer is happy for me to change it but having a couple of problems with the run. House is a bungalow with good loft access so will run cable accross loft but when the cable comes outside the back has a concrete patio which customer won't allow to be broken up and this continues to the side of the house. The side of the house is approx 1 metre from a 2 metre high fence. The patio is approx 2 metres long from the house. From here its not a problem is can put a trench in to bury the SWA along the fence but its getting over this patio at the back or concrete at the side that is the problem. I beleive a overhead run has to be over 3.5 metres?? I also beleive I can't run the cable along the base of the fence or top of the fence due to potential damage if fence blew down??
