Thanks Guys I’m I the process of running electric into a New Shed 👍

[mensamoo]

wanted to see the run along the outside wall. Also the depth of the wire in the garden. Thanks for the vid tho....

during lockdown i started living in my friends mancave, its wired up with 2 socket extension fed in from the out house electrics, i would love to put a pay as you go meter to see how much electric i use.

So that house owner now has a non compliant power source to their shed.

Not buried at all, 600mm depth is the advice where it likely to be disturbed (it's in a flower bed). Yes it is notifiable for those that asked. No sign of warning tape with is typically about 150mm above the cable but that cable isn't even 150mm deep to start.
Under paths patios etc are not likely to be disturbed so far less depth is required.

Do not copy that example, or you could end up in trouble.

Must've missed this video. Superb mate. Really enjoying your content

I wouldn't dream of running anything other than 10mm, youve already said the shed use will evolve. Why fit underrated cable now, then have to re run thicker cable in future? Also are you ducting the cable to give it airspace or buried direct into the soil. And what about a consumer unit in the shed? Are you really spurring off an outside socket which is spured off a house circuit? How about metal clad sockets in the shed at the bare minimum? Where does this installation meet any regs? What the disconnection time?

Golden rule, if your not used to using a shovel it's advisable to piss in the palms of the hands first.FACT ask any paddy 😂

Hi jack getting to nearly have watched all your videos brother short and sweet to the point carry on making your videos as they are top quality love to

[dazzauk]

I am after this type of job. I'm in Birmingham to (rubery) . I want power to a shed as I want a 3d printing workshop to work in.

[ningis]

Question.... Now the cables are clipped to the wall studs....and you fix your pattress battens between them and then mount your back boxes on that make all your cable out of zone? especially if the client has it boarded out internally as you mentioned he might do...which will make your cables not comply with BS7671 and the building regs and you have been notified of this prior to starting the electical work????

[tonysnowdon]

a sparky picking his mess up didn’t think i’d ever see the day

[Noodles]

Great video. Looking to do something similar. What's the best way to work out if you'd need a consumer unit or not? I'm looking to turn my small 8x8ft summer house into a studio. Probably two twin sockets either side: one for a desk setup (MacBook/screen/small speakers etc) and another for maybe a TV and Xbox. I have an outdoor socket already coming from an indoor socket. Could I run off that (around 10ft away) or would it be too much daisy-chaining?

[curiousjoe]

Love your videos mate. Great sense of humour. Where else do you find that on YouTube hey!
Would there be any value in a she consumer unit in this scenario? I have an outdoor socket on a 16amp breaker and was planning to spur from there with 2.5mm SWA running down the garden to the shed. It’s around 15 metres. Would appreciate your thoughts on this pal.

[NM-griq]

Top class laugh lads, and great work.

[Hatsan]

Great vid, do you think it would be ok to run a cable from a spare 45amp mcb to a two slot board for lights and sockets to my workshop for power tools.

[peterigrenyi]

Last power we ran into a garage was in 95mm 5core SWA 😂😂😂

[paulwrite]

So if the mrs is in the kitchen with the microwave and kettle, extraction fan and the tv on the wall and then I plug in my 110v 3kva transformer to run my makita chopsaw and blue tooth 110 makita extraction hoover and a small fan heater with my batteries for my drills on charge and the lights on and 240v stereo, , are you sure that it wont trip out, cuz I don't want to be walking back and forth into the house to keep flicking up the breaker and then having to keep resetting the time on the microwave and cooker. Or is it better to come from the consumer board on its own 20a circuit. What you think..

Nice shed, just needs a fridge, TV and a PC job done😅🔝
