Just doing a quote for garage and shed wiring, plus some outdoor sockets. In the past I have gone down the route of using plastic conduit to protect cables.
I was thinking through the options and I am now considering NYY-J Tuff Sheathed cable as a good alternative.
I am thinking
For external sockets people don't really want 20mm conduit running around the bottom of their house and this at the bottom of the wall would be less conspicuous.
Shed wiring always seems expensive compared to the cost of the shed, moving away from conduit makes it easier to tuck cable in to corners and would save time.
In my opinion at least cables should have some level of protection in garages. Plastic conduit done well looks good and provides good protection, but again is quite time consuming if the cables are concealed over the entire run. Some installers just run conduit to ceiling level but in my opinion this doesn't look great and with people using ceiling space for storage the cable is still exposed.
Just wondering what others think.
