Agree in principle Mate, but the real test of the cable's condition will be if you have to alter or move the cable, I have seen it crumble and crack if you try and move it for other works, but can see your point to some degree, an interesting thread for sure. Love those buckle clips, brings back memories of making up a handful with pins to hand to the Sparky I was helping at the time.What’s all this recent piffle,you can’t use pvc t&e externally.
you can see this cable years old @ least 30 years old,no sign off damage whatsoever.View attachment 52839
No honestly I’ve actually felt it,it’s fineIt's also possible the environmental conditions may have compromised it beyond what is immediately visually apparent. Hypothetical, but it would be interesting to compare IR on it at say five year intervals of its 30 year life. Also, taking @Dustydazzler's point, if someone were to rest say a set of steps or materials against it, would the insulation easily break and crumble?
that's either a huge cannabis or Triffid behind the window, or a reflection of a large tree. if the latter, it's probably why the cable has not seen any sunlight.What’s all this recent piffle,you can’t use pvc t&e externally.
