    I've been wiring up my shed and just want to check this is acceptable.. A SWA cable is ran from the CU to the shed (about 10 meters) but where it enters the shed is too short so my plan is to run a normal twin & earth from a junction box to the subboard (2 meters).

    Flat twin and earth in mini trunking - which installation method?

    Greetings, Is this allowed? It would appear from BS7671(17th) that the installation reference number is 8 or 9 with a reference method 'B' for determining the current carrying capacity of the cable. However, the anomaly is that table 4D5 doesn't include a column for method 'B'. Can anyone...
