The two jobs people skip are drainage under an in ground fitting and marking a buried cable.

The cable can be laid in a shallow trench or clipped along a fence without armoured conduit, it can be cut and joined with waterproof connectors outdoors, and a spade through it is an inconvenience rather than an emergency. The transformer itself is the only part that touches mains, so that is the only part an electrician needs to look at. Bury cable at least 100mm deep, run it along a line you will remember, and leave a loop of slack at every fitting so you can move things next year when the planting has grown.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhen to buy\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eGarden lighting is bought in spring and installed in a hurry. It is much easier to dig a cable run in February when the borders are bare and the ground is soft than in May when everything is in leaf and you are trying not to stand on it. Order in winter, get the cable in, and the first warm evening of the year is ready for you rather than a job list.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Garden Glow Essentials","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54963521454417,"sku":"GGS-INS-005","price":33.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1079\/8832\/0593\/files\/Garden_Glow_Essentials_Cable_Laying_Tool_for_Turf.jpg?v=1789049461","url":"https:\/\/gardenglowshop.com\/products\/garden-glow-essentials-cable-laying-tool-for-turf","provider":"Garden Glow","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
