Further Information

Our in-house electrician Stuart recommends using this cable for powering a small garden workshop. This cable would be perfect for supplying mains power to a variety of permenantly installed power tools, such as pillar drills, ban saws etc. For this job we recommend wiring the cable directly into the mains and then burying the cable underground. The cable will require outdoor CW20 glands for termination, as well as CC7 cable clips for attaching to any walls or surfaces.
