The Tails Won't Fit

Piratepete · Feb 10, 2011

Just had a 3 phase supply upgraded to 100 Amp, new meter, isolation switch. So I've been upgrading the tails to a SP CU, a 3PH 30Amp switch fuse,and a 60Amp SP switch fuse.

I've done everthing in 25 sqmm except the 3Ph 30 Amp switchfuse. Not only can I not physically get 4 x 25 sqmm cables into the box - I've had to use 16 sqmm, but I've also had to snip off 2 of the 7 strands to get the wire into the terminals!!!

I consider this a temporary fix!!!! What do you wise folks suggest?

radox cable. if you don't know it, its 120A rated on 16mm, very flexible as its not 7 strand but hundreds. single insulated though so a bit of coloured heatshrink good idea. ferrules on the termimations.

Just Googled it. No suppliers that I recognise. Do you know who sells small quantities of it?
