    Advice on fixing this outside mess

    What could I use to join the two boxes. If I have a Wiska box below and the RCD Enclosure above it.

    Advice on fixing this outside mess

    It’s about 10m 4m is a straight run horizontal. Then there is a bend around the corner. 4m straight run and then 2m vertical.

    Advice on fixing this outside mess

    I know we all make mistakes. I’ve learnt from it. Every day is a school day as the saying goes. If designing the circuit the CCC Table 4D2A 3 core in conduit is 27 amps in Conduit and 32 amps Clipped Direct.

    Advice on fixing this outside mess

    Okay so what currently exists is an RCD and an outside box. Two radials done in 4mm NYY. And a 1.5mm SWA that’s been cut. I’ve 30m of NYY which I’ve decided to use as selling it online is a right pain and with the price of cable going up it’s not worth buying new cable when the NYY seems...

    Advice on fixing this outside mess

    It’s a bit obvious that a new cable is needed as it’s anyone’s guess as to where it’s been cut. Maybe as the RCD was off I also decided to look in the enclosure. As you know it’s outside and all. Having done that and then trying the consumer unit I then found the problem. I’m not trying to wing...

    Advice on fixing this outside mess

    I’m not trying to. But you really don’t like anyone that works in that field. Also the original install was done by a qualified spark. What’s wrong with NYY or do you have a better suggestion.

    I can’t reconnect it. It’s been cut between the garage and outside.

    Advice on fixing this outside mess

    With that now the culprit. I’ve ordered a vent plug for the Wiska Box. Some Wago 222 Connectors and something to connect the Wiska Box and RCD enclosure. In hindsight singles would probably be better but I’ve got 30m of NYY and the price of cable and also selling the NYY.

    Advice on fixing this outside mess

    That would be the case. Initial when looking the RCD was off and looking inside and seeing the water ingress I then done some testing and when nothing happened I then went to the Consumer Unit in the Garage.

    Advice on fixing this outside mess

    Right so I’ve done some further investigation back at the consumer unit in the garage. Tested for Continuity and IR and got nothing. Open up the Consumer unit to find that when it was converted into a room. They decided to cut it. So the feed that goes from there to the RCD is no more. The...

    Advice on fixing this outside mess

    The SWA goes into the L N terminals on the RCD. It’s then fed into the Garage Consumer Unit on an MCB. Then the Garage has its own feed back to the Consumer unit in the house. It’s currently buried under paving in the garden. The new NYY-J would be installed in Galvanised Conduit.

    Advice on fixing this outside mess

    The SWA runs into the Garage Consumer unit. It’s on its own MCB. What would be best used to connect the two boxes together. Something like a Brass Compression Gland.

    Advice on fixing this outside mess

    What I’m saying is if the SWA is no good. I’m going to replace it with NYY-J Meaning it’s the same cable type used throughout the installation.

    Advice on fixing this outside mess

    Yes the RCD has tripped. It’s feeding two radials of 4mm 3 core NYY to each shed. Which has its own light, socket and FCU. The other end of the cable is a 40a MCB. I’ve got a Wiska 1010 box and a Vent Plug, if the SWA is no good I may replace with NYY so it’s all the same cable. Would this need...
