At the supply side it looks basically the same, but goes into a three way junction box, but the way the armored comes in is the same. I can take pics tomorrow. Both ends have a shroud, I pulled it back a bit in the pic but it's there and coveres the metal completely. Yes the connector is...

Thanks for the speedy reply. It defiantly looks like a bodge. Based on what you said, I will remove that bridge as it seems to be doing nothing, and chuck some sleeve over the rest, should be better then I guess. Anything else worth doing whilst in there?

Hi Guys - I need a bit of help. There is a run of armored cable from the shed to the back of the garden with a 2-gang socket on the end. I opened it up and noticed that it does not earth to the little grub screw in the back-box, is this normal? It has been installed with an earthing nut. It...

Thanks for the quick responce. I do not think my CU has an RCD. I figure there are three options now: 1) Plug a plug on the end of the house-side armored and just plug that into the RCD protected socket when I want to use the shed power. I quite like this option as its easy and means I can...

Hi Folks, A friend of mine installed an outdoor socket and also run some cable up to my shed. I want to check with you guys that it is safe as I am not 100% sure on the RCD tripping method. Inside the house is the standard wiring from the house CU. He drilled a hole through the wall and...
