[QUOTE="raustin, post: 189249, member: 12932"] Not sure I explained it right. The garage installation is already in and being supplied from a small DB next to the main DB in the electric cupboard. There is about 1 meter between the house and garage which is connected with SWA cable. There was an issue with one of the sockets not working which has now been resolved. The CPC from this socket is going back to the small DB. In the process I noticed that the lighting circuit CPC wasn't what I expected (although this is the first garage I've looked at) The lighting CPC is not connected back to the DB, it is just termianted in the back of the light switch. Is this correct or not? I also noticed that metal clad socket was not earthed to the CPC, again is this correct or not? Cheers Rich [/QUOTE]
