Hello
I am about to lay cable for an electric cooker. I have the correct cable, control units and terminal outlets and will be getting an electrician to connect to the consumer unit. The easiest route for me would be to start in the elecricity cupboard, and round a wall shelf above wood panelling, obviously encasing the cable in trunking. Is this legal? The cable boxing would be barely visible above the shelves, but visible enough to avoid acccidental damage? It would just save me having to wreck a fairly new floor above, or below...many thanks
