thoughts on this one folks....

6mm armoured cable to supply summerhouse. Wiska box screwed onto side of the house at a low level beside vents - this allows a pathway under floor to front door hatch where fuse board is.

Option 1 - terminate the armoured cable into the wiska box on side of house. Join with 6mm twin and earth inside box with crimps or terminals.

Option 2 - use the wiska box to feed the cable through under the floor. Join the cable nearer the hatch to allow crossover to twin and Earth.

Note 1 - wiksa box was added to outside wall for neatness. Rather than having an ugly hole with cable running through it.

Note 2 - want to avoid terminating the armour into the board for a few reasons (ease/ access/ space etc)
 
Really cant see the point in an external wiska box, just drill a neat hole and make good....cant be any 'uglier' than a black box. Cant you terminate the SWA outside of the DB in a galv through box or adaptable box?
