Job done.
Pic of the shed shows what I was on about – I wanted to run an RFC all around the perimeter.
But OK, I’ve listened, and changed my mind. I installed it as two separate radials, on two 20A breakers, rather than as a single ring on one 20A.
I believe it's electrically not as sound as my ring proposal (the CSA is lower), but I agree more ‘standard’. An example of where strict compliance with regulations is actually worse electrical design than ‘breaking’ the rules.
Also a pic of using SY for the sockets but without the correct SY glands, designed, I believe, primarily for where EM screening is specified.
Unravel the screen, twist, sleeve g/y, then shrink-fit the lot. Outer sheath ends in a normal cable gland. Is this OK? BTW, the holes in the back of the metal boxes will be sealed to keep insects out. Not fitted the accessories yet, and though I’d better consult this wise oracle before proceeding …
Thanks, Mark.
