Hello.
My brother in law has bought a new build detached property. The garage is detached and no more than one meter from the house itself.
I have looked all through the regs book and can't find anything relating to the requirement for supply cabling to the garage.
The idea is to wire sockets from a 13a FCU from the downstairs ring-main (RCD protected) into the garage, going down the wall about 20" under one 2 by 2 slab into the garage.
We wanted to supply lighting from a further FCU to control lighting.
I had originally hoped to ensure mechanical protection by way of a conduit system. Can anybody tell me the requirement for supply cabling to this sort of installation? Does it need to be SWA?
It is my understanding that this is notifiable also due to being an detached garage, is this correct?
Any help would be much appreciated.
Cheers
