Hey looking for a roughy idea of how old this cable is,
It’s a rubbery cable some of it is twin and earth other is just 2 core red and black and the 3 core is red, yellow and blue. It looks like the conductor is tinned copper and it’s about 3 strands to what looks like 1.5mm of its imperial equivalent.

Ripped loads out in me time, 3/029. In my experience with all VIR the terminated ends just crumble off over time, when you chop it back 3 or so meters once its out lol looks like new.
