Hi,
I am putting a 4mm SWA cable from the house to an outbuilding. The outbuilding will have a small consumer unit.
Does anyone have any suggestions on how to terminate the SWA wire armour neatly into a consumer unit. The only thing I can come up with is to gland the cable off using an angle bracket near to the consumer unit, then take the 2 cores, earth core and earth from the gland into the consumer unit at each end.
BTW do you have to connect the armour to ground at both ends?
