New sub board for shed swa advice.

Because it is in the HOUSE and running through the fabric of the HOUSE and in the HOUSE equipotential zone...because it’s an extraneous conductive part.....and not with a strap but with an SWA gland 134.1.1

Look you clearly don't seem to realise [or care] that there are many well qualified,highly experienced and dedicated professional electricians on this forum. Nowhere has it been suggested using a strap instead of an SWA gland, although this was common practice for many years and I'd imagine considered acceptable at one time. Of course the armour must be connected to earth, you do realise that we're talking about situations where a seperate CPC is used within the cable ? But I still say that it doesn't state anywhere that the armouring MUST be earthed at the supply end. I've had enough of this nonsense now and won't post any more on this thread.

So where does it say in the regs you run can export the DNO earth?!

What’s your membership number?

I think big bad bob has been educated beyond his intelligence, as a mate of mine used to say. he obviously does not operate in the real world, out there. The world of sheds, and things.

Lol, don’t want to make a big thing about it, but it appears I’ve been a member for a lot longer than you.

It appears you are 2 digits short of an IET membership number. On your card what is your area number?

Anyway where is this place we are exporting things to? Will we be able to export them when we leave the EU? Arghhhhhh..........
Or did you mean extending??

An extraneous conductive part in a house doesn’t need bonding to earth.......kind of invalidated most of your last and final comment.

Oh you call it extending? How very modern.

I'll have to reply again, what I'm saying is it CAN be connected to earth at the far end - as long as it's connected. You're clearly less intelligent than you think you are.
