Hello folks, long time reader first time poster.
I'm looking to get power to my detached garage, which is part of a shared garage block. It's about 60m from my back gate, across dense woodland as the crow flies. One option is to bury armoured SWA from my existing CU, following the back path down to the garage block - this back path skirts the back gardens of eleven houses before coming out opposite my garage. Around 70m total distance.
I need permission from each of them to dig up this path which I am willing to try to get (I think they are all friendly) but wondering what format does this permission need to be - a signed letter? Just a nod and a handshake? Something with some legal backing?
Garage will be used for power tools so solar and batteries not an option, but maybe a generator.. but I want to explore the option of extending my existing circuit first. Quote for new connection came in at over £8k from the nice people at SSE...
Any other advice or ideas appreciated
Tom
