[QUOTE="Red Squirrel, post: 555138, member: 33673"] Hello Guys, I wanted to try to get to grips with how SWA should be terminated before getting the sparky out! Simple setup with SWA cable coming from consumer board to garden shed. Been having some issues with tripping back at the main supply board (garden shed breaker) so decided to investigate board in garden shed to find the SWA (3 core L,N,E) not having the armour earthed, this is a plastic enclosure for reference. The earth core is earthed at the earthing bar. Back at the main supply board the armour is earthed to the earth bar from the gland (metal enclosure) - Should the armour be earthed at both ends or is this acceptable? Thanks! [/QUOTE]
