after 7 months of feckin solicitors and twatty builders quotes work on my zed's new home is to start on monday........... about freekin time. Talked to a spark in work about wiring and was told is ok to run 6mm armored cable on a 32 amp radial circuit to supply it. Garage is approx 40m from my consumer unit. For a few light machines and 1kw of tube lighting does this sound ok?

I would go 10mm i would even go as far as putting in another consumer unit in the garage, and running the SWA to that then running normal T&E from the board to the sockets and stuff.

I have like a lever switch I was going to wire the armoured to then out with normal cable. your option does sound good though cos the lighting would be on a seperate circuit. Could that still all be done on a radial circuit or would it have to be a ring circuit ?

Would go with Daekside and have local dist board with split rcd
