What Goes Wrong ? - Shed Power Install 

Personally I would of clipped the cables at high level on the shed walls and then dropped down to the sockets. I get that it’s only a shed, but having them loose like that makes them prone to damage. It’s all a learning curve, keep up the good work.

Top job Adam. I totally agree with you on the shed build quality. New sheds are expensive and very poor quality. I built a new wooden shed recently and regret it. I should of spent extra and brought a plastic one.

Looks good, i think i would have gone for a 6mm from the house to a 5way board then 2.5 to the second shed with some galv conduit for the cables so they dont get caught or damaged, You know that cable will be used to hang stuff from

Hi Adam nice job mate no criticisms here but was the sheds fed of a spur in the mainhouse? and why have an Isolater at the back of the shed? you know that shed will be rammed soon and that will not be accessible think i would have placed at the front by the door above the double socket. thx keep up the good works

Hi.tuff. is a tougher cable ...and there are some tidy cleats and banding out there...also makes a better seal in a stuffing gland...and can handle quite a knock...swa to shed .. changover to hi.tuff

Best thing I ever got done electrical wise was to get an electrician to run power to my shed. 👍🏻 Made certain things so much easier.

Good job, well done. Sorry to read comments, everyone does the job differently. You went with the customer requirements.

Good stuff. I would have definitely gone for conduit horizontal between sockets and chucked a saddle on each stud. Little bit more work but worth it.

Nice job here bringing the modern world of electricity to those sheds and let us all remember that people do some very strange things in sheds that are best done with the doors tightly closed 🙃

Check out table D1 of the on site guide for cable spacings. Could have possibly inserted more 4x2 timber and clipped to that between the uprights or take the cable up along the top and down for each outlet. At the beginning we are all eager for work but i have found when someone wants a cheap jobs its best to walk away, either you're not happy with the work of the customer isn't.

Everybody will do the job differently. If your happy it's done to the best of your ability and the customer is happy with the job. Then everyone's happy.

People are going to use those horizontal cables to hang stuf on,... poor cable support there Adam.

A few observations, not criticisms at all, I’d have taken the supply for shed two out the back wall next to the feed in for shed one rather than running it up the inside corner, I’d have raised the floorboard panel up to cover the hole(s) through the shed wall as it’d look neater, then either used conduit for the sockets or clipped the t&e along the top of the wall and brought it down to each socket rather than stringing across (for the sake of a couple of extra metres of cable), my OCD would have made me put isolator for shed one on the left and finally, you should have used some flexicon somewhere, for old times sake 😂 Otherwise, a cracking job! 👍

Really nice job Adam!

Definitely should of talked the customer into going for conduit in the shed. Looks pretty awful the Twin and Earth on show. Why didn't you cover the SWA coming into the shed behind the back board?

Come up and along the top bit of timber and then drop to to sockets so you can clip correctly and guarantee they are secure. Anything catches them cables they will get stretched or worse yanked out. Live and learn mate! You can't improve by getting it right all the time! Everyday is a learning day!

Can you do a toolbag tour and maybe explain why you use what you do?

i always clip high level & drop down in conduit to sockets switches etc. kids can pull on them cables ? not your best work mate

I would have run the cables along the top studs and dropped them down to the sockets, don't like the look of it going across the walls.

U probably strengthen the shed up putting them dwangs in4 the skt pal

Loving the content Adam, our employer recently switched to verso fittings, what do you think of them ?

Dentist colour shade 😂

Did you mean to not seal the hole?

Nice little job there Adam! Any reason you didnt use one (or a couple of) LED battens in each shed? Would provide a better distribution of light and fits a bit more nicely on the beams. Even (heaven forbid) a couple of LAP items. Being in a shed, one of their IP65 battens are actually quite well designed. Personally i would have tried to get top and bottom entry consistent between each of those double sockets, one is up and one is down which looks a bit strange to me. Mind you it is just a shed so perhaps I am being picky!

Sadly that install looks like poor DIY. T&E when run at that height is prone to damage such as from garden implements or just general occupancy.

❤where do you get the power from 😊

Nice job, some times its Nothing u can do. However, cleen job mate

All the gear no idea

that verso RH switch tab has broken....

This man has to much money, look at all them tools!

why didn't you bring the two swa's through behind the backboard at the same level. If the customer told me not to use conduit or trunking, i wouldnt have done it. would you run twin and earth up someones wall in their living room. just because they wanted a cheap job. I'lld say its more vulnerable in a shed. Whats the maximum support spacings for 2.5mm run horizontally, you can ofcoarse lift the fence panel out and from the neigbours garden lift the cable off the ground and fix it properly.

What you think mate 6 or 8 inch ck cutters

❤ too many negative comments good tidy young spark the new Nick bundy ❤

Great job Adam, nice and neat well done👍

When I got my shed wired up sparky wouldn't let me use the none ip rated items I bought he told me it all has to be up rated and went ahead and fitted them

U taking on any apprentices?

Don’t think I would want chipboard as my shed roof. When it gets wet. That’s it

Nice 1… not a sparky but looks a good job to me

You need an apprentice to do all the dogsbody work 👌

Lovely jubly

Nothing wrong with Primart for a bargin, but just don't go ordering tools off Wish 🙂

Those lights are identical to thorn lara lights. Everything about them. Must be rebadged.

Exported PME?

Why does everyone wear gloves all the time now and never use a hand tool. It's bent.

Great electrics. Using "obviously" as a filler word in almost every sentence isn't cool though.
