Can’t find the letter for aluminium armoured copper single core cables for the test sheet any ideas
 
You could define your own codes and as long as they are referenced somewhere, either put XY = CBALE type whatever somewhere, or annex your list of codes if there is a lot in the installation, then you are fine.

Common ones I sometimes use are: FP=Firetuff, AO* = LSF Twin and earth (I used to put it down as O, but i decided I'd be clear its a sub type of A)

*AL was avoided to prevent people thinking it refered to aluminimum

In your instance I'd probably define wither GO and and FO, or more likely, GA, and FA as AWA cables, probably the later because the former looks a bit to much late "Just GO and F/O" :p
