    Mk's quality has definitely taken a nose dive, the early sentrys were good and even had a sort of rubber grommet thing for top and bottom entries on the boards (on the placcy units), would have been ideal for this situation. Speak of the devil, heres what the OP needs on ebay at a bargain price...

    Don't worry about the SWA gland in the wall, just do it up properly, use an extra core for earth and do the gland up properly!

    Are we all just splitting hairs about these IP ratings? If your that worried I would buy a metalclad unit and some blind grommets and cut NEAT holes in them

    RCD doesnt trip on test.

    RCD doesnt trip on test.

    Right I'm gonna suggest something that I may get screamed at for by some on here, I don't recommend doing it but as you have no test equip. It may be the only way to test (ish) an RCD. I would remove rcd from board, connect a flex with plug top on one end into the top L and N terminals and plug...

    RCD doesnt trip on test.

    RCD doesnt trip on test.

    Well somethings got to give. IMO a properly done gland in a wall (hopefully a stud wall) is not a problem use a CW gland to take the strain off of the armouring . And use a pirana nut thingy.
