Hi all,
Just looking for peoples opinions regarding how I plan to have some electrical work carried out to see if I’m being sensible about this.
Unfortunately I’ve had an issue in the last week where the power supply from my main fuse box in the house to the garage has caused a fault meaning it’s constantly tripping the main RCD.
This supply has now been disconnected (from the fuse box) to remove the fault and the cable needs to be replaced as I believe it’s and old copper cable which has degraded.
To take up all of the flooring, dig down to find and replace the cable would be a pretty big amount of work. Therefore I’m just planning on running an armoured cable through to the outside wall from the fuse board, running this along the outside wall to the rear of the house and a small amount of chasing it under three or four paving flags into the garage.
I’d really appreciate people’s opinions on if I’m being sensible or if I should be considering biting the bullet and taking the floor up which would be time consuming and expensive for me.
Appreciate any input people have to offer.
