[QUOTE="OnOff, post: 482722, member: 16173"] Case in point. My big brother. Wanted to dig the trench & lay the new cable to the garage himself (the old 1mm MICC in a scaffold pole was shagged). I said get proper duct. He got blue 25mm MDPE. I explained how to unroll the SWA; broom handle across two patio chairs or wife+broom handle and get daughter to tread on end whilst they walk down the garden. Did he listen? [ATTACH]9961._xfImport[/ATTACH] When I got there after the panicked call it was a sea of mud and Fairy Liquid where he'd been using copious quantities try and get it through the MDPE. Trench was a spade's depth if that but that was OK because "he knew where it was". [/QUOTE]
