And the tape is defiantly okay for 42amps cooker cable?
Bo I think that what DPG means is that the insulation values of the tape will be sufficient, NOT the electrical connection or termination method, the tape has little to do with the electrical connections , just the insulation values. I feel you are getting out of your depth, with this.
 
I should have put a few more words into my post Pete!

Self amalgamating tape won't start coming unwrapped over the years either like insulating tape often does x

Just realised that I put an 'x' on the end of my post. I'm not usually that forward, but it's Friday so not to worry eh.
 
Just to clarify, as mentioned in post #4, the tape option is only suitable as long as the copper in the cable has not been damaged.

Yeah the copper is soggy exposed but 100 percent no nicks. Not even a scratch. I’m gonna use the tape. But just wondering.
Just wondering. The normal junction boxes aren’t Maintenance Free because of the screws? Incase they work loose. Isn’t that what’s loctite screwlock is for? Lol lol ?

No it isn't, don't try and be flippant with electrical safety, you could be on the recievng end of a dangerous occurcene and believe it aint funny.
