Running a Powershell command to another ws that requires administrator privileges - powershell

Question

I'm required to run a TPM command (requires admin access).
Lets use these for the legend:
Angelo - Standard user
AngeloAdmin - Admin user
Windows7 - Computer that has a standard user in it
How can I use my standard account to run the script as an Administrator to execute a script to another computer with a standard account remotely?
Heres the partial code I will run:
Set-Variable -Name BuildLog -Scope Global -Force
Set-Variable -Name Errors -Value $null -Scope Global -Force
Set-Variable -Name LogFile -Scope Global -Force
Set-Variable -Name Phase -Scope Global -Force
Set-Variable -Name RelativePath -Scope Global -Force
Set-Variable -Name Sequence -Scope Global -Force
Set-Variable -Name Title -Scope Global -Force
Function ConsoleTitle ($Title){
$host.ui.RawUI.WindowTitle = $Title
}
Function DeclareGlobalVariables {
$Global:BuildLog = $Env:windir+"\Logs\BuildLogs\Build.csv"
$Global:LogFile = $Env:windir+"\Logs\BuildLogs\TPM_On.log"
$Global:Phase = "Final Build"
$Global:Sequence = ""
$Global:Title = "TPM Clear Ownership"
}
Function GetRelativePath {
$Global:RelativePath = (split-path $SCRIPT:MyInvocation.MyCommand.Path -parent)+"\"
}
Function ClearTPM {
#Declare Local Memory
Set-Variable -Name ClassName -Value "Win32_Tpm" -Scope Local -Force
Set-Variable -Name Computer -Value $env:COMPUTERNAME -Scope Local -Force
Set-Variable -Name NameSpace -Value "ROOT\CIMV2\Security\MicrosoftTpm" -Scope Local -Force

$oTPM = Get-WmiObject -Class $ClassName -ComputerName $Computer -Namespace $NameSpace
$Output = "Clearing TPM Ownership....."
Write-Host "Clearing TPM Ownership....." -NoNewline
$Temp = $oTPM.SetPhysicalPresenceRequest(5)
If ($Temp.ReturnValue -eq 0) {
$Output = "Success"
Write-Host "Success" -ForegroundColor Yellow
} else {
$Output = "Failure"
Write-Host "Failure" -ForegroundColor Red
$Global:Errors++
}
Out-File -FilePath $Global:LogFile -InputObject $Output -Append -Force
#Cleanup Local Memory
Remove-Variable -Name oTPM -Scope Local -Force
}
Function ProcessLogFile {
If ((Test-Path $Env:windir"\Logs") -eq $false) {
New-Item -ItemType Directory -Path $Env:windir"\Logs"
}
If ((Test-Path $Env:windir"\Logs\ApplicationLogs") -eq $false) {

}
If ((Test-Path $Env:windir"\Logs\BuildLogs") -eq $false) {

}
If ($Global:Errors -eq $null) {
If (Test-Path $Global:LogFile) {

}
$File1 = $Global:LogFile.Split(".")

}
} else {

$LogTitle = $Global:Phase+[char]9+$Global:Sequence+[char]9+$Global:Title+[char]9+$date.month+"/"+$date.day+"/"+$date.year+" "+$date.hour+":"+$date.minute
Out-File -FilePath $Global:BuildLog -InputObject $LogTitle -Append -Force

If you want to run the script as a different user you can 'SHIFT+Right click > Run as a different user' but that works only on applications, so you have to run Powershell as a different user and then the script, you can make a batch file to do that. Here is an example of what you will need in the batch file.
runas /user:yourdomain.com\administrator powershell
If you dont have a domain use the computer name
runas /noprofile /user:computername\administrator powershell
