Got 9 bollards with a 0.08 N-E IR, all jointed underground with a flex coming through a concrete block. Mini digger coming tomorrow to break the lot of these out and to be re done in proper torpedos , or where possible both armoured brought into the new bollards. Installation less than 3 years old

yes that is a flex through a SWA gland with some tape to thicken it up.
