Hi
We are putting up an outside building to house a hot tub, the recomended cable for this by the manufacture is a 6mm2 armoured cable. What i was woundering is if I ran 10mm2 to a fuse box in the out building would this be ok the then split off for separate sockets and lighting on different circuits.
The problem is we are just starting to dig and I thought to save the electrican pulling a cable through the pipe we are laying if i ran it in advance as i run the pipe it would save time or are the chances we will need something totaly different.
Hopefully the attached drawing will give you an idea of the plan. Is this something to get an electrican in at this stage before pipe are placed ?
