The wire that i got for this project was a type 12-2. it is the right wire for home wiring and for my needs in my shed. make sure that the wire is inside the conduit before you start the installation. i became aware that it is against electrical codes to use sheathed cable inside a conduit.. This is a guest post from the wonderful sheddie andy over at workshopshed.. overview. an electrician is needed to install a steel wire armoured cable in a deep trench to provide mains power in your shed.. I'm electrifying my shed. i have a sparky coming tomorow to connect the rcb from inside the house to the armoured cabling i've run outside. first time i've done any cabling so for the amount it's costing i thought i'd get someone certified to do this bit as they can also sign of on it. aside from anything else i haven't got a drill big enough to go through the external wall as far as running.
The connections would be easier yes because you won't have to take a feed to the light and a switch wire to the switch. all you need to do is take the supply to the 13a sfcu and one wire from that to your light. change the fuse for a 3amp one and you will be ok.. Wiring up a garden shed or outbuilding is a very frequent request, and there are many advantages to adding a few lights or sockets. but despite sounding rather simple, a shed installation can be lot more complicated than you�d think..
