In the process of laying a concrete base for a 16x8 workshop which I will be
ordering soon. Base consists of 50mm type1 sub-base and 100mm ready mixed concrete. I now want to sort out electrics to the workshop and stumbled across this website http://popularmechanics.com/home_imp...er/print.phtml I'm aware that this is an American site but just wondered if it is accurate enough to follow for my own project (apart from the obvious power differences etc). My objective is to do as much as possible, e.g. sourcing all required materials, parts etc and laying the armoured cable etc - then contacting a qualified electrician to actually connect the circuit. Despite being technically minded and well skilled in IT - I am not confident enough to touch electrics and besides, I am unqualified anyway!. I intend to have a strip light and perhaps 4 double sockets for power tools etc. Thanks John |
