My first one consisted of showing them the shower circuit in my own house, he looked at the EIC, then asked me to do a zs on it, asked a couple of questions regarding the cable route and one about safe isolation. Didn't even bother going to see the other job, which was a ruddy great new build, complete with swimming pool, solar array and sauna and the whole reason for getting registered in the first place. Not sure if they are any harder on the guys without the 'proper' qualifications tho.
 
I knew it was too long winded!!!

I did mention that the shed CU was to have its own RCD main switch. I'm not sure of how the 'circuits divided to avoid danger & inconvenience' applies here, its just a shed. There were no lights to begin with so even if an earth fault on the dryer trips the RCD killing the lights its not the end of the world is it?

The shed CU in question is plastic and my question was can I gland the cable in an adaptable on the outside and leave the SWA 'tails' long enough to go through into the CU on the other side?

Take it back and buy a metal one!

Always the best idea for a CU on the end of a bit of SWA!
