[Closed] Running leccy from house to shed- advice needed

piemann · 2014-12-02T16:32:33Z

I desperately want power & light in my shed, but am not sure how best to run the cables from house to shed. I'm not keen on having hanging wires between house and shed, but I can't find a way of running armoured cable across my driveway. I can't go underground without ripping out lots of concrete. I was thinking about the heavy duty cable ramps that you see at festivals etc and just bolt it permanently to the drive. Or else I could just use a length of pipe and pour a small concrete ramp (max height 40mm) over the pipe. (I have found a guide for making the forms for ramps.) Am i missing any trick ghetto solutions?

I recon you've probably got an extension lead, and if you haven't, go buy one. Go to an electrical shop, or screwfix, and buy an outdoor socket for your house and wire it in to the consumer unit or ring main. job done and about £50.
