Shed supply

[craig1000]

Thoughts please?

Shed supply spurred off ring in house, ring is RCD protected.
SWA glanded into AD box outside back entry through wall into socket!
At the moment SWA feed just a twin socket, but customer would like a small CU put in with a few sockets & couple of lights.
Although i would like to see it have its own supply from CU the cost & practicality's of it would be difficult.
I cant see anything wrong with the existing supply being used, its a 3c 4mm SWA.
Dont want to try to make the customer go for a dearer option unless i can justify it on safety/regs grounds that its not acceptable as it is.

ok so no extraneous parts i.e wooden shed, just normal use sockets n lights will be ok
If it was a metal shed or container then 10mm(or bigger if conductor size was larger) back to MET, if this was not practical then resort to earth rod!

Change outdoor adaptable box for IP rated fcu (or an indoor fcu in an IP encosure)

terminate swa into metal clad twin socket (or adaptable box then on to plastic sockets)

Couple metal clad socket to metal clad fcu for lights

simples.

(unless max demand in shed is more than 13amps, then it'll have to get more expensive)

Basically, yes.
