I need some outside containment for about half a dozen or so unsightly cables run outdoor - a mix of black telephone, black security alarm, red (now faded to orange) fire alarm. These are all existing cables, and need tidying up and supporting properly (currently all tied to disintegrating plastic drainage pipe with cable clips that are also breaking down in in sunlight). Something like 50x50mm size, and about a 5 or 6m run.
Indoors I'd use trunking, but outdoors? I can find black PVC trunking but no mention of use outdoors. Galv trunking might just corrode?
Also the cable run is over a fire escape, which is one reason why the current arrangement is somewhat unsatisfactory.
Any suggestions?
