we should start charging , only a joke mr moderator he he
 
Hi, I'm replacing a damaged cable to my shower and can't make a good job of getting both 10mm^2 cables in the old DP switch box without stripping the external PVC way back to promote flexibility.

The thing is these are massive cables and the one at the bottom comes from the top and vice versa, the opening at the back barely permits the two entry without needing to cross over.

Should I replace the switch or let cable leave without full outer insulation?

Come on peeps. Everyone knows the outer sheath is only there to keep the cores together whilst wiring.
