If you are using the steel sheath as an earth with plastic adaptable boxes you will have to connect the glands together in each box. However if using a SWA with three conductors one being used as an earth then that is not necessary and you can probably be able to use cheaper stuffing glands with the adaptable boxes.

I thought the armour always had to be earthed, whether it was also being used as the circuit protective conductor?
