Extending supply cable

Jun 08, 2008 3 Replies

What is the recommended way of extending a 6mm ^2 supply cable ? I'm wiring up a double garage divided in two to make a workshop and the incoming cable is a couple of metres away from where the CU should go.



I can't see anything immediately obvious in the Screwfix catalogue. The CU supplies a 32A MCB ring and 6A MCB for the lights. RCD on the ring.

Where is the joint, underground on a wall, under floorboards etc?
