what are the rules - mains supply into the house

[watson789]

hi all

fairly new to this so probably asking some silly questions but anyway!

basically i need to know if where my electricity supply comes into my house, can i run a pipe (plastic or copper)behind recessed into the skirtiing board or boxed out and insulated/earthed for a radiator further along the wall? the other alternative is to dig a 2m trench in concrete!

see photo attached, hope this helps my description

I don't see why not as any leakage from pipe is not going to get into electrics. I take it you are running pipe horizontily above skirting.

Can't see problem but if i am wrong i will stand corrected.

Any other opinions?

Cant see why not either .....as long as there is clearance between pipe and electricity supply cable.
