Was it on a farm? Odd they bothered with an Earth, usually that's optional out in the sticks...

I think it must have been a farmer with a conscience? The SWA was buried at 2 inches - helpfully dug up by some pigs

i worked on a contract moving machinery at a major lighting manufacturer near doncaster about 40yr ago and they would not buy cable glands they insisted we used short pieces of conduit & 2 jubilee clips , unless we bought the glands at our cost

All i can say to that is, ...The Engineer in charge at that time wasn't worth a crust mate!!! And 40 years ago, would have been very unusual too!!!
