Just about to put up a new shed approx 15m away from house. Obviously want power in it for a couple of sockets and lighting. Our main consumer board is in a very awkward position to run armoured cable from it to the new shed.
We have an existing internal socket in the kitchen which is on the main ring which would be ideal if i can run a spur from it to the shed.
Can this be done? do i just run armoured cable from the socket in some conduit underground to the shed, then to a fused outlet, then from that to the lighting / sockets?
Alternatively can i run a spur from the socket to a new consumer unit in the shed, and then all wiring from the new consumer unit.
I know a lot of people are going to say just get a qualified electrician in to do it, but if its relatively simple to do ill have a go at it myself and save me self a few hundred quid.
