White armored cable

[djelectric]

I briefly visited my uncles house the other day as hes asked me to install an outdoor socket in his back garden. I noticed some light fittings installed in the garden, fed using what appears to be white flex.. its all very neatly done, but was curious about the flex as it runs along a wall where i feel it is prone to being damaged.. I had a closer look and it seems to be armoured (or very very rigid when i felt it). Almost like MI cable!

I have never come across white armored cable before and cannot find anything similar (online at least). Was going to enquire in the wholesalers over the weekend.

Has anyone else seen or used this before? Or am i mistaking it for a certain type of (very) rigid flex..

Thanks
