Quick one.
Is there anything in the regs that state safe zones for external placement of pvc conduit ? I've looked and can't see anything specific. Reason I ask is the installation I'm doing is needing me to run conduit at one brick above damp course.
 
I would add you should use some "common sense" in that if it is an area likely to, say, get bashed with trolleys then you should use metal conduit instead, or take other steps to avoid damage.

don't recall OP saying it was in Tesco's car park. (trolleys).
