Do you know the difference between live conductors and line conductors?

 

[Trickyd66]

Yep.. Just having a blonde moment, apologies for any confusion. Not getting technical, Line = old fashioned live / phase conductor. Live = any current carrying conductor (old live/phase or neutral).

But the question was how many would be enclosed

God, how embarrassing... I was thinking 22? Surely its 16? Then the old message of 're-read the question slowly' came into my head... 'ring'!
