Building a garden office? 🏗️ The most important part isn’t the paint or the furniture—it’s the power supply that runs underground.
In this video, we install a new Steel Wire Armoured (SWA) sub-main to bring safe, reliable electricity from the main house to this new garden build in Peterborough.
The Installation Process:
Trenching: We bury the cable to regulation depth (600mm) to protect it from garden tools and frost.
SWA Cable: We use heavy-duty armoured cable that is rodent-proof, waterproof, and designed to last decades.
Circuit Protection: The new supply is connected to a dedicated way in the main Consumer Unit with full RCD protection.
Testing: We verify the “Volt Drop” ensures your heaters and computers get full power at the bottom of the garden.
Why not just use an extension lead? Running a standard cable across the lawn is dangerous, unsightly, and invalidates your home insurance. Do it the right way with a Part P compliant installation.
