It looks like a cooker cable size which the previous occupier had installed to feed a glass furnace in the garage for his wife's stained glass making hobby. I merely want to set up a ring main supply for 13amp sockets to power ordinary DIY tools etc.

Wiring a ring main in garage

I have run a 30amp cable from an RCB switch in the house CU to my attached garage where I intend to connect it to a CU in the garage. I want to create a ring main within the garage. Can the ring main consist of 1.5mm cable or does it need to be 2.5mm.
