Is it OK to run some 6mm T&E cable along the outside of my house?
I want to run cable from my fuse box to my garage. I have have enough armoured 6mm cable to run from the garage to the end of the house, but I need to get from that point to the fuse box. I have enough 6mm (Not armoured) T&E cable to do that. By far, the easiest route to the fusebox would be along the outside of the house,and then through the wall into the fuse box cupboard. Is it OK to just staple the cable to the wall, say 8" above ground level?
Also, while you are here, I also found a reel of 4-core flex (8mm overall dia). What do they use such 4-core flex for?
Thanks,
Al
