Hi. I have an earth cable that I've made a vertical chase for in my kitchen (to earth the sink). Does this need to be run in some kind of conduit according to regs? It's not in a safe zone (above a socket or outlet) because it's just an earth cable. Also what is the normal method or covering the chase (presumably just plaster over it...any particular type of plaster?).
Also I have a lighting cable to chase in that is in the safe zone (vertical above the light switch). Is it ok to just plaster over this rather than run in conduit, as you shouldn't drill into safe zones anyway?
Thanks
Tom
