Electric into shed

[Diydude74]

Hi can anyone give an approx price i would expect to pay to have a cable put into a shed from the house?
The house is approx 8ft from the shed.

What sort of route does it need to take....what will it be supplying...do you have rcd protection...If you have a type AC rcd this will need to be changed to a type A...... Minor works cert needs to be issued. So the answer is god only knows

Hi I don't have anything it's brand new shed the route would be out of kitchen along wall then onto a fence then into shed

The questions were about you current supply and fuseboard

Can't be attached to a fence. Either has to go overhead or underground.

Hi Conny how could it be done overhead ? Is that possible? I don't know about specifics

Basically, you string a catenary wire between the house and the shed, (there is a specified height, but I can't remember it at the moment), and you suspend the cable a few inches below from this wire using loops such as loose cable ties.
If you Google 'How do I erect a catenary wire for cables', or look on You Tube, there are lots of examples on how to do it.
