    I know what you mean. We often get days like that, especially when the boss asks how long it will take then you hit problems and need another half day to finish, panic sets in as he already books in a new job for tomorrow! Keep up the great work and carry on regardless.👍👍👍.

    I have never been able to say my jaw literally dropped watching something before now… but 3 mins in, when it showed the 2.5 T&E just laying in the ground with a junction box connection just there on the damp leaves, it actually happened for the first time ever.

    I find it easier bringing the SWA into a wiska box external of shed wall, and drilling through the back of box into shed and either conduit upto or low level DB 👍

    You have not connected the cpc in the swa but glanded the swa in to a metal db which will be earthed from the earthing in house db ?
    Just letting you know as you’ve still got the garage db earthed from the house. Pull the swa out and gland in to a plastic enclosure below unless those garage dbs are plastic of course 👍

      It could be the house end which wasn't shown, is either a plastic housing on the fuse board or the cable terminated in a plastic box but yes separate earthing for both.

    did you say? is it tncs or what? if tncs, why do you need earth rod? I am just asking, interested.

    Grip-it fixings are ok but you'd have been easier and had smaller holes with ordinary hollow wall anchors. The ones that open up behind the drywall when you tighten the screw(or use the setting tool).

      A piece of plywood spanning across the corner and window battens would have also provided a solid base for fixing and room for an additional socket mounting.

    Function over form, is the saying you are looking for, the opposite to an artist who looks for form over function.

  • @gadgetboy38

    What would you do if you couldn't connect to the main board? could you spur from an outside socket?

    Stick some sticks like shi* on the back of the board for extra strength

  • @joemagin782

    Isnt the garage board still connected to the PME via the armouring of the SWA?

    • @GreenHawkConstructionltd
      @GreenHawkConstructionltd  8 місяців тому +3

      No it is separated at the other end via a plastic enclosure

    • @johng9341
      @johng9341 7 місяців тому +2

      Why did you need to make the shed a TT System??
      The house supply is TNCS OR TNS
      so why not just connect armoured cable to earth of house System??

  • @keithhowes1309
    @keithhowes1309 8 місяців тому +1

    I’m interested to know why you have used an earth rod and not the earth that is with the SWA cable.

    • @Arachnoid_of_the_underverse
      @Arachnoid_of_the_underverse Місяць тому

      I believe regulations require a separate means of earthing which should not be connected to the house earthing due to a possible potential difference and earth leakage(TNS system).
