Hi all,
I'd like to provide my shed with some power. I know that ideally I should use a spare way in my consumer unit, but I want to save some time, money and effort and so I am thinking to add a spur to "garage radial circuit". I have a plan in my head, but I want to check it with someone. Also, as far as I understand, this addition is classed as a notifiable work according to Part P building regulations am I right? So before I start any work I should contact appropriate authorities and find a competent person to supervise my work.
The garage:
Radial circuit in the garage fed from 16 Amp RCD. 2.5 mm Twin and Earth cable comes in a switch and then from switch I got another two cables going to light and double socket (T&E). So knowing that, can I come from the switch with another 2.5 mm twin and earth to Fused connection in my shed and then from fused connection to double socket and a light? Or should I go from the double socket in the garage and then to fused connection?
Many Thanks.
