I built a cavity wall insulated garage with a tiled roof, which internally measures 4.5m x 6.6m for under £10k. Although that's mostly materials only virtually no labour. Its not finished yet but i expect finished will be around £10k

Looks very impressive, not sure i'd have the confidence to be fitting a steel into an existing wall to make a new opening... I'd be far too worried about the house falling down!
wouldn't it be safer to use a good quality contactor to switch the high current load on and off then use a wifi relay to switch on the ~1w load of the contactor. rather than trusting something of amazon to switch 32+ amps
such as this...
Hi all,
So i know safe zones are created at straight lines from an outlet, but can the following be done
Red shows route of ring main, and yellow shows proposed route for a fused spur
Hi noseall,
This was to give 2.4m high walls internally after the roof trusses are overboarded with 50mm PIR and 12.5mm plasterboard. Also it was required to clear the topbox on the roller door.

So now we have a door
Will need to attack the unlevel floor with a grinder to get the door to seal all the away across. little bit of light showing in the middle
Fence modified and refitted
Will probably end up replacing the very weathered fence panel once i get a few off cuts of decent timber
I'm going down the 3rd party approval route however the guy I used when I rewired the house is no longer doing it.
But as long as I get it inspected before the plaster goes on whoever does the 3rd party approval can still check cable routes and if required I can make any modifications.
Nope still here. Tbh I did stop reading after page 1 and carried on with my first fix it was only when I stopped I realised things had digressed somewhat although this isn't my first time posting in the electrics section of this forum so I'm not surprised.
Unless it wasn't clear garage is being...
The reason for my first question was I was hoping to save on cabling by spuring it. But as you said that is not good practice I will now run it as a separate circuit
