I'm in the process of building my workshop from scratch and am nearly finished.
I intend running a 6mm cable from the spare 32amp fuse ini my CU to a Garage CU in my workshop, then running a 2.5mm ring round the workshop connected to a 32amp fuse in the garage CU and lights connected to 6amp.
The workshop is very close to my rear wall (less than a meter), and the garden wall is over 6ft high. see Photo

I intend to run the 6mm cable under the upstairs floorboards, out through the rear house wall, along the garden wall (near the top) then into my workshop.
I presume it should be in conduit (live near the sea if that makes any difference)? If so, I'm happy running 25mm conduit. The only bit that confuses me is where to start the conduit. Should the conduit go through the house wall cavities or can the cable go out through the house wall then go into the conduit?
Many thanks
Phil
