[QUOTE="steptoe, post: 518604, member: 7"] Apart from the red sheath, 2 core strappers and singles for switch/feed very common for 2 way switching before the widespread adaption of 3c&e , Was the issue of "borrowed" neutrals often, landing light switch from downstairs, neutral from upstairs, [USER=1497]@poni[/USER] NIHE used to specify 1.5 with a 1.5 earth , fkn nightmare ,!!! and yes, they wouldn't permit red/black to be used as a switch wire either, it had to be twin red. Is the red sheath "normal" pvc stuff, or is it a harder type sheath,? I've often seen it as a direct buried cable but with an almost plasticky type hard sheath. Kinda like LSF type sheath. [/QUOTE]
