    Hi There,
    just a quick question on making feedthroughs, Does anyone know if having the two services water and electricity coming through the same feedthrough is allowed, I imagine they need to be kept a certain distance apart :(

    That red box, is the breaker box :)

    Thanks

    To answer your question piping and electrical cables are permitted to pass through the same OPE.

    Obviously a distribution board should not be installed in a way that means that it is likely to get splashed.
