Hi
I intend to employ an electrician to do the wiring to avoid problems with part p but wish to bury a 16mm swa cable between the house and new workshop beforehand to then power it up. I can get this to emerge above ground at the external wall behind the supply with some effort. My problem is I have solid floors and reinforced no fines concrete walls that are a pig to drill. At best I'm only likely to manage to achieve a horizontal hole. I therefore suspect it will be imposible to pass the cable through the hole without leaving a large loop in the cable projecting from the wall. My question is would an electrician be able to pass a 16mm twin and earth through the wall and connect this to an external junction box to achieve the desired 90 degree angle through the wall then down the outside wall that complies with the regs?
Thank you
