short length buried cable tape
 
I will only be burying a short length of SWA (less than a metre) below ground where it goes from the cable run under a path and into the garage.

From the electrical suppliers (Coventry) where can I buy a short length cut from a roll for a few pence ?

Thanks,
Simon.

TLC sell SWA by the metre, but their nearest branch to you is Luton. But,
they do mail order. 2 core is only 102p per metre for 2.5mm.

If it's visible each side of the path (goes down, across, and up again on walls) I probably wouldn't bother.

Anyway, Ebay, from 99p metre postage free.

There is a roll in my barn:-)

You could hover outside your nearest cable supplier and beg some from
the first white van that turns up.
