Yep never thought of that.
Tony mentioned that it's what he personally uses but did mention that he uses waterproof type cables.
Thoughts Tony ?

All the cables are hardline CU2Y.
The duct drains through the bottom into the ground below.
After 20 years there have been no issues.
The top covers stop debris falling in.

Cheers

Tony

By the sounds of it you're talking to the brain-dead as common sense has gone completely out the window!
