Hi,

I am going to be running SWA cable out to the garage soon (Total run is
a little under 20em from the house CU to the garage CU)

I will also be installing a generator point on the garage, which will be
connecting to a proper transfer switch in the house.

It will be easier and cheaper if I just run a single SWA cable with 4
cores, two for the generator and two for the feed into the garage.

Is this permitted, or do I have to have two separate cables?

The SWA will be terminated in the house and garage in a metal box, then
the two circuits taken from there to there respective places.

The main complexity sounds like it is going to be dealing with earthing
and possibly main equipotential bonding. What earthing scheme do you
have in the house?
