Damaged Cable Help??

[energizedelec]

Ok so iv just been called out to a job where a builder has put a pick axe through a 35mm 3core armored cable supplying a house (its a submain from a meter housing). So my question is does any one know of a waterproof connection for this size of cable i cant seem to find one and my suppliers don't have anything???

Some links would be good

Thanks

Try not to get the resin on you as it is a bitch to get off again !
And was rather toxic as well .:ack2:

I thought pick axes were now banned by the Taliban (HSE)?

they're OK as long as the face is covered by a binbag ( sozz. burka )

Silly question for you, but something you may not of thought about. Do you have a crimping tool suitable for the 35mm ferrules that come with these resin joint packs?? lol!!

Preparation is key !
I have over looked that one before , and always when it is bloody miles away from the yard !:censored:

use the builder's pickaxe. it should now have a nice blunt end.

Had a wooden handle so he was ok and yes the end was blown off!!.

All sorted now had to get a crimping tool as well thanks for the help guys really appreciated.
