Hi all.
I'm sure this has been asked before, but searching returns hundreds of results about routing cable inside walls) though chases etc.
In my garage there is a length of 6mm t&e ending at a 45a terminal block. I'd like to switch this for a commando socket in the car port in the other side of the wall.
There's an isolator switch roughly inline with where is like the socket, but higher up.
I'm thinking drill a 16mm hole at about 45 degrees so there is no hard 90degree bend IN the cable. Then just put the socket over the hole on the outside. Would have preferred to drill outside in so as to not chip the harling but there a water pipe to the garage tap within a few cm so don't want to run the risk that I've got the measurement wrong or that the drill goes squint.
Also thought about either conduit or SWA cable then going down to the bottom of the wall, though the brick and back up, but wouldn't be able to maintain the bending radius on this. Just curious if there are other ways to do this? Short of knocking bricks out.
