This is a little hard to explain and would just like your opinions on it.
I've been asked to wire a conservatory for someone and after looking at it have come up with the idea that the best place to run the cables would be under the floor, which is going to be concrete then insulation then floorboards/chip board. The cables will be run along the outside of the flooring on top of the concrete and i will have made a grove out of the insulation so that the cables aren't touching it. I was just wondering if this would be within regs, i'm pretty sure it would be but just want to check.
Edit: I've just found this reg so i'm presuming its ok?
Regulation 522-08-04 BS7671:2001 requires that where cables are not supported continuosly by their method of installation, they shall be supported by suitable means so that the cables do not suffer damage due to their own weight.
