    I recently bought a house and started to rewire it. A sparks mate came and helped with a few bits and I got him capping the chases. He put a nail through a cable in one chase, then told me he may have done it in a couple of other places, he's not sure! I had a plasterer going round behind me...

    Do I need conduit?

    Im considering my options for fitting an outside socket for the garden. If I was to take a spur from a socket on the inside wall and drill through, would the 2.5mm Twin and E cable between the two sockets need to be fed through conduit or trunking? Or can I simply run it through the wall? Thanks
