Fw: CAT5 embedded in screed - ok ?

[Gareth Cook <g@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I'd like to get as much of the screed down as poss, and not have
conduit
with "air pockets" essentially

The base underneath is the normal concrete floor - this is a 30mm screed
on top.

Yes Gareth

Any movement in the floor at all (at slab joints etc) would break the
conductors.

Why not run them in a length of PVC conduit? - or are we talking about
10's of runs?

Besides, it not good practice - I'd hate to do a job thinking that when
somebody looks at it a few years later, they start muttering about
cowboys etc!!!

Cheers

Neil
