Hello can anyone advise what they would do in this situation please. I have a wylex 100amp switch fuse that has an incoming and out going cpc connection which takes up to a 16 mm cpc. I have 16mm incoming and outgoing cpc, however how do I then earth the enclosure and the banjo as the cpc connection has no connection with the enclosure
 
Is it one of those where there are the earth terminals at the main switch isolated from the earth terminal on the back box.

It is a stupid design, being 100A I would have thought that terminal would take 16.0 have you tried it.
 
Tails in swa out
Could you just take the 16mm CPC to a crimp lug bolted to the SWA's banjo and, assuming 3C SWA, also put a lug on the cable's SWA conductor to the same bolt?

i.e. Ignore the switch's through-CPC connection and the box's terminal strip completely.

EDIT: Also you could use a nylock nut if concerned about it coming loose.
