Is it possible to buy just the olives used in MICC glands? Had to cut back some pyro this week to remake the termination, was unable to salvage/reuse the olive, and ended up having to buy a whole new gland. I know that glands are not terribly expensive, but all I needed was a new olive (and pot).
Recently done a EICR in a church and about half of the heater circuits (tubular heaters fed by MICC routed under the floor) had low IR, typically 0.18 to 0.61 Mohms. There is a lot of damp in the floors, and I have to explain to the customer why the circuits are failing the tests so that they...

Hi all,

I have split the micc cable leading up to the room stat in my appartment and was wondering if anyone know how this will be wired as i have no wiring diagrams for the installation. I am an electrician but have no idea how this is connected.
