Hey guys,
Just a brief one to scout for your opinions. Just been reading several articles about earthing SY. Now i use SY all the time at work, one of my favourite cables because of its durability and flexibility and i have ALWAYS out of habit, braided and earthed both ends of the armour.
Now i have a big job coming up with 15/16 circuits to get done, all in SY. I am on a serious tiem budget to get this done, its a lot of cleating, a lot of terminations and a lot of cable routing and i wouldn't normally suggest trying to cut corners and certainly never when it could compromise the safety of a circuit, but the deeper i dig, the more im reading that most in fact never earth the braid.
What are your opinions on this and what do you all do?
I know you can buy those glands which pick up the pig tail and provide an earth upon glanding but they are £30 a pop and im already strecthed on budget.
