[lammy76]

Hi guys /girls can you run armoured cable straight into c/unit or does it have to go into Henley block and then run tails from that ?

Could be what reason

You're obviously a DIYer and don't know what your doing, I repeat get a qualified sparks in.

The CU is stong enough to hold it and cannot fallout maybe I should just run it to the Henley terminate their and the run tails of that .its all I was asking earlier

The plastic CU isn't supposed to support it! That's what proper installation methods are for!

This has to be a windup

1. You can not gland an swa of any size directly onto henleys.
2. You can not have unprotected single insulated cores.

You need to think this job out a little more. You have said that you have the SWA terminated into a plastic CU what type of gland did you use and how did you connect the armouring to earth?

Subject to calculations you could have used the armouring as the cpc.
