    Meter Tails in Galvanised Trunking...Is that a thing?

    Advice on work I've had done

    Interesting discussion,I have my opinion and it agrees with one of the competing views :) Where I see a problem is with the op in his opening post describing the cable as they have used a 0.75mm 3 core white flex cable. He is extra observant or meticulous with his estimate of flexible cable...

    Old Cable colours

    I would have no hesitation whatsoever to use old colours:cool: The only reason I would not do so is if the copper cores had oxidised,the insulation was somehow or other damaged or for some obscure reason I had run out of identification tape or letters Having said that,I'm open to changing my...

    2 x 10mm2 into socket terminals.

    You may well have to use that swa to feed 3 distribution positions,the shed at the end and each socket position otherwise a troublesome socket problem could well end up knocking the innocent shed off power if you revert to plan A I think the 2 socket positions would at the minimum need a double...

    Exposed T and E's during test.

    The irony of this thread (which I have only just read) is that the op wanted to code the clipping of the cables and was rightly lambasted for his decision The coding of the cables would have been justified, had he picked up on "how" they have been clipped rather than "because" they were clipped
