Have been working in a small packaging company today along with another local spark, installing a couple of single phase distribution circuits. 99.99% of my work is domestic, so was really along with him to help and learn a bit more at the same time.
The questions I have is why do some guys install 3 core and others install 2 core SWA for the distribution circuit. My 'mentor' today was pulling in 2 cores and using the armour as the CPC, where as existing distribution circuits were do using 3 core with the 3rd core as the CPC.
Is it personal preference or is it a case of if the CSA of the SWA is of the correct size it can be used.
