Hi all I am listening :roll: The cable run is expected to fit against the back brick work of the raised wall. 8" was a guestimate as also running below this depth are the buried pipes to the swimming pool for both skimmer & cleaner feed services. It would make sense to utilise this 'don't dig...

Thanks for that, I'm a bit wiser now :D So would a cable with a statement 'Conductor nominal cross sectional area mm2' of 4.0 be the recommended one. I assume it refers to each available conductor (in this case 3). What VA (typically) does 4mm allow?

Hi The route is predetermined by the wall both the Tub and Pool house butt up too. The depth cannot exceed 8" below this wall height (raised garden), so all I need is a power calculation please !

Hi The source is a Pool house with a current 60a feed (Local CU)) fed from the main house CU. I guess heater and pump will occasionally work together. I only wish to supply (and Lay/route) this cable for a Sparky to terminate (although I am capable) on a dedicated RCD

I have had a hand me down external Hot tub installed and now need power to it. It is 20mtrs away (approx cable run) from a sound electical service. The Pump is rated @11a, the heater @ 3kw, what is the correct rated amoured cable I need to purchase to complement this load?
