HI, I will shortly be running 25mm blue MDPE pipe AND 10mm2 SWA cable
from one end of the garden to the other end via a 2 feet deep trench.

WHats the minimum separation distance required between the blue MDPE
pipe and the 10mm2 SWA cable?

Regards,


A spades width:-)

Or put the water pipe in at 750mm and the SWA in at 400mm.

And I have loads of underground electrical warning tape if you want
some, just email me.



One thing that is annoying about SWA cables is that it only semes to be
available as 3 phase, not in single phase plus earth! So I'm forced to
put sticky coloured tape on the conductors at both ends of the SWA!
