Hello there,
I was trying to post this question in the routing article, but after a few successfully attempts I am asking in the forum.
I have a little project at home and I am seeking some experienced advice on it.
I am originally from Spain, and since there houses are build of blocks cable tubes are used to run cables throughout the hose.
I live now in the UK and I am in the process to change plug sockets that were originally installed using daisy chaining from the main ring circuit, to be back on the main circuit. I am doing the donkey job and later I will get a professional to check and connect.
Does it make any sense to use cable tubes? I know that here the cable is ran directly and nailed to the joists. But would it be good idea run it using the pipes, so cables can be run without lifting floor boards in the future?
My point is that I can leave all the runs from plug to plug, and carry on decorating and add the carpet, once the electrician is available it would be a easy job to run the cables.
Thansk for your help/advice in advance.
Olmo.
PS: By cable tube I meant this kind of pipe:
