I've got loads of cast iron switchgear here I've 'saved' from various jobs. It's so much nicer than the rubbish plastic tat we fit today.

Oh that side, breakfast at Porkies then!
On putting a date on old cables the makers used to use a letter system. This was certainly used on pilc cables and sometimes in lead sheathed twin, don,t think I have ever seen it on singles though.
I have no idea why they dident just stamp the date on.
The code is;
KALITEMBUS for BICC
1234567890
MAYFLOWERS for AEI and Henley
so KUTB is a BICC cable made in 1958
