What is your earthing type?
What size is the swa and the t&e?
What size OCPD are you using?
Any extraneous conductive parts in the Wendy house?

There is no need to run a second earth to the outer braid of SWA cable.
Run 3 core SWA to Wendy house, using one of the cores as a CPC/Earth.
Terminate the SWA to metallic adaptable box, using SWA gland packs.
This will then terminate the SWA braid to the metal box, you can then terminate a earth/CPC to metal box, then join all three earths/CPCs together at the adaptable box via a connector.

Hi

Im wanting to run armoured cable from Wendy house to terminal box inside house to a twin + earth. But do I need to run a separate earth cable as well as the twin and earth to the terminal box so the outer armoured has separate earth connection to consumer unit or can I connect outer armoured braid and inner earth to the single earth in the twin and earth back to CU. i.e can I run single twin+ earth from terminal box to consumer unit or do I have to run 2 separate cables[/b]

Wendy house = children playing in it.

If not FGS, for theirs, please get someone who has a clue to do any electrics. Although IMO there shouldn't be lethal voltages in it.

 

[DaftPunk]

Yeah and cut off all the electric in your house too or boot the kids out cos there's lethal voltage in there

I have a friend who is a NIC approved supervisor but he too busy to do install but will energise test and issue Certificate etc.

Not much of a friend if you are asking him to lie on official documentation for you. You could at least have the decency to ask him how you should do the work he's going to pretend to have done.

Not asking him to lie im asking him to fully check and test the installation like any other electrical inspection not asking him to say he has done it just check its safe

So who will sign for design and construction on the EIC?

What about Building Regulations approval?

yeah I want a few things doing that require electrician or building inspection so have reconsidered and just getting him ( electrician) in when he gets a spare min and I want downlights with pir installing in bathroom and kitchen

 

[ban-all-sheds]

I would strongly advise against the PIR.
