Man cave power feed from new build property issue Discussion ThreadMan cave power feed from new build property issue Electrical Advice
Hi All,
I am in the process of purchasing a new build property in Swadlincote Derbyshire
And want to build a man cave so require the standard lights and sockets for the build
The house builder has mentioned running from an external socket ?
The little bit I do know of electrics this doesn’t sound correct or adequate,
I have mains in the garage with light and socket, but not sure if this would be the correct method either ?
In my current property I have my man cave ran through armoured cable ran form main fuse board,
So my question would be if I am correct in doubts on the above working adequately
To run a new fuse board to the garage, Would this be fed from the fuse in board in the house ? Or can it be connected from the mains power feed on external box into the property, fed of that direct to the garage .
My thinking being a new fuse board in the garage could then feed armoured cable feed to the new man cave ?
The main fuse board for the property is positioned in the middle of the property with floors already laid, so to feed from there would require invasive works for the cable feed I would rather avoid the cost of , if possible..
Thanks in advance
