can this cable be run externalling fixed to the side of my house with or without conduit?

I want to run this cable from my secondary consumer unit which is on the ground floor to my shower which is on the first floor. . Is this possible with or without conduit for the external section?
Asked by: tony1234
Please be aware that we are cable suppliers and don't represent any approval organisations. However I can say that this is not a cable designed for external installation. It is unarmoured and therefore should be installed "out of reach" . It does not have UV protection of the sheath. Although I don't know the details of your proposed run I would think that best practice for these reasons is to install behind capping or in conduit.
