Has anyone come across this type of cable for a submain.

Think you’re wrong on this one Julie.

That looks like split concentric to me. The neutral comes insulated blue and the cpc is bare

That would be what I would expect, but it looks like sleeving to me, if it isn't and it has been split correctly, then my bad.

Yes, but usually they are separately identified - these don't look to do so - it could be that only one set of outer wires goes to neutral, and the other to earth, but as I see that particular instance such segregation isn't guaranteed, it looks like a random selection of outer wires split between n&e rather than proper split.

The neutral wires usually have continuous insulation, it looks to me that its sleeved - on my phone anyway

They are seperately identified, the blue cores insulated cores are connected to the neutral bar and the bare earth cores have been sleeved and connected to the earth bar.

Perhaps it is me and my phone, but it looks like sleeving on both n&e to me, if not and it's been done correctly then I stand corrected.

I’d have money on it that it isn’t sleeving

If they have managed to sleeve the neutral so well with no copper showing at the cable end and such precisely sized sleeving then I would have thought they'd do the same with the earth instead of using loose fitting sleeving with copper showing at the cable end.

The number of strands in the earth appears to be correct for split con and also they look to be thicker than the neutrals.

It's definitely split con - there'd simply be no point in anyone having done anything else!
