You should ask the store you're buying it from what they recommend, but putting an electric device on the floor of a vivarium seems like a bad idea. Water bowl, urates...even if the odds of something going wrong are low, having electric current and liquids together inside the enclosure should be avoided.
Literally every UK reptile site people say exactly what I described so I was just wondering if anyone here has a wooden vivarium and how they heat it
