I think this is last edition that included them?

(It seems the 15th edition doesn't list them as protection for direct contact, but they are in other bits of it with note "Residual devices are preferred")

Come now, lets do it properly:

I do the Western Union and only add solder when the wiring goes inside appliances, there's almost no regulation on electrical work where I live so most self-proclaimed "electricians" use random wires and do simple twist splices and cover it with tape.

Here's a dodgy thing, minus "protective" cap. Guess what this is.

If you said mug warmer then you're right, it makes your tea/coffee/beverage of preference boil and could make your mug explode if you leave it plugged for more than 30 seconds, but does the job.

edit: upload image directly to thread.
 
I have seen SWA made off like that quite afew times but normally when its made off into a plastic gland and the sparks winds the armour together like that parking it to earth

I don't like seeing SWA made off like that into a plastic box / plastic gland with the strands earthed like that but like most things its probably a new fangled way of doing things
