Can anyone advise me on what cable to lay between an existing shed and a new one.
The current shed is supplied from a separate circuit on the house consumer unit, the current armoured cable is about 45 meters in length and is marked as 3 X 6.0 and runs to a small consumer unit in the shed. I wish to lay a cable from this shed to the site of another about 15 meters away. The power consumption on the new shed wouldn't be more than 15 amps and the existing shed is used mainly for lighting an the odd garden tool.
The consumer unit in the shed has a spare connection, but I will be getting qualified electrician to connect to this when the time comes. I just want to lay a cable as I need to tidy the garden where the cable will run. I do have some 3 core 1.5mm armoured cable left by the previous owner, but I don't know whether this would suffice.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated
Pete
