What type of cable is acceptable to use in a waterproof under ground duct between an entrance gate and the house.
Plan to use 3 inch rain water down pipe solvent welded joints for the ducting. Gate end will glanded into an IP62 or better box, house end in a cupboard.
Circuits are 230 volt AC
[1] triple and earth for a two way light ciruit
[2] twin and earth feed to gate motor
[3] twin and earth feed to lights at the gate.
also low voltage control circuits possibly in YY cable as it is available.
In a domestic installation would 12 core YY be acceptable for the various 230v conductors together with a 10 mm earth conductor ?. Core identification information sheet to be permanent at both ends. The owner is getting conflicting information from electricians and is concerned.
