How easy do you think terminating a four or five core swa cable into a 63A socket will be.
 
as stated above. not my bag. i will do it though. and i will do the job well. after advice not criticism. can i not ask advice on here? so instead of being a ****? why not advise..

Honestly, from what you have said you have a very poor understanding of the job at hand, a simple job, which is why you are being asked so many questions.
Just provide as much info as possible and you will get as much help as possible. This is the internet and you can ask questions but you have no given right to receive the answers you expect to.
 
Damn thats a big mother! Sure it wont melt the plastic cups:)
Anyhow at 16mm² the armour should suffice as a CPC. So four core is a viable choice. There is a PDF on here somewhere with the steel equivalent to copper ratings. Is this clipped direct and horizontal run?

Depending on how the adeabatic works out, existing supply test results, Zdb etc, then I would probably go with a 4 core. Use the armour as CPC, install a TPN&E socket. The N may not be required for this machine but might be needed in the future.

andy, as i have said, clipped direct 16mm. rather than rely on the SWA earth i would personally run 5 core? and neither to incorporate a switched fused isolator? all I'm asking
 
What type of 63A socket do you intend to fit and will you connect the swa direct to it.
 
i haven't no. its easier to ask. but as i guessed on here its a waste of time. I'm extremely tired. earnt £1630, in 4 days and working tomorrow. but yes I'm a useless ---- yes yes. came on here for advice.
 
Steady on now, no need to get so despondent. It sounds from what you are saying it is a plan. And workable. So you have had a couple of comments but steady on now.
 
its not my bag. i just want instructions on what to do. yes i am a spark 2330 qual 10 years ago. sorry i need to ask. but i do what i do. and earn well. new job comes up ill do it ask advice. anyone want to give??
