    Two Ovens, One Cable

    I agree that a single isolation would be fine but this is a better solution. I have ordered this from TLC. They seem to be the only company who supply this. Thanks for your help.

    Two Ovens, One Cable

    Connecting SWA to Twin and Earth cable?

    I am about to start a job where the existing wiring from a detached garage is 2x6mm SWA.

    That's correct. And I will take the new SWA back to the Consumer Unit, which should have need done in the first place.

    Terminating SWA Cable

    You're quite right Pete999. It's a Ring Final Circuit not a ring main. Thanks for pointing this out. Have you a solution to my question?
