PYRO......PYRO,! Don't talk to be about

[kerching]

So after an hour i found all the Pyro tools....reesult! Exactly where i did not think they would be

terminations?........i NEED 4 L1.5

i have 7L1.5.     And every other size including imperial EXCLUDING a complete 4L1.5 termination

i have earth tail pots, 5 stub seals, compound.   NO GLANDS except 4 L 1!!!!!!

....so i have a cunning plan, if i cannot get some other size gland to fit well enough after bwing whittled.

salvage gland and olive from garage end and run a new SWA from the somewhat foreshortened PYRO.  It is buried under a path and a long way from the house so it aint getting dug up in my lifetime...well not by me

just off to google Pyro diameters to see if owt is close

ho hum

couldnt you just replace the cable from garage to house with swa job done

What part of the world are you in?

I'll go have a look in that good box I've just been bequeathed.....saw some Pyro tools in there at least.

 

[M107]

None on my van............will check the works motor in the morning.

 

[OnOff]

Nope sorry, tools only:



I wonder if it would be bad form to go have a sift through the old boy's shed on my own?  :lol:  I'll ask!

I would like to........but it is a long dig. Pyro to garden wall,is fine.    I have about 2m poking out of ground so,I can dress it back neatly, into Wiska box, out with SWA to garage, job done.

priority is to get a proper weatherproof  termination on the end of it.

all,of ground floor is laminate....no access

I just love my job

Don't forget , Kerch ,  something like 2L2.5  may fit  a 4L1.5 cable .

I can look tomorrow if you are don't have any .

I am happy now i have found the pots and seals.

looked on web and found diameter is 7mm.  Which is F close to a couple of other sizes. I have 4L1.5 earth tail pots so that side of it is covered.

i also have my backup plan of using the old gland and olive from the garage as I am pretty sure that the run to the garage is going to be unusable by the time the rest of the ivy has been removed from the wall which it is attached to.  I am just hoping the original installer was a bit limp wristed when he tightened up the gland body

Let us know how it goes .

Sorted!

found an unopened bag of glands at bottom of the Imperial Pyro bin...compound was a bit of an issue.

robbed some from another pack as I literally had earth tail pots 

4 core turned out to be pair of mains to feed garage...no prob

other pair?,,,,,fricking strappers to,garage!

feed from lighting cct house end, sw at garage end and N from garage board!....nice.....sorted that out with a PIR LED flood on garage!
