Default Mains supply to garage

:-)

But if it's a metaphorical up - why not a drip loop?


That's what the 3 way conduit box is for. The cable passes through it,
is shaped into a drip loop and the bottom entry left open. Then stick a
lid on the box.

Either that or drill drain holes if there is a definite lowest point(s).

I am pretty sure the OP can work it out. I just wanted to make sure that
he was aware how much condensation could actually accumulate into a
couple of metres of conduit. Maybe the conduit box is not needed in the
OPs case. But if it is needed it's a £1 solution.
