I'd personally take the same current carrying capacity for a two core SWA which utilises the outer wire armour for a CPC as I would a three core SWA which utilises the inner third core (and the outer wire armour) for a CPC.

The only time the current carrying capacity changes would be when a three core SWA is being used for a three phase circuit.
