having watched my sparky spend hours hammering cable clips in it seems like a huge waste of time. Has no gun been invented that does the job? I've read about various staples, the arrow t72 being reasonably often mentioned but not well rated, that fire staples suitable for T&E but somewhat amazed in the age of the nail gun, collated screws, push fit all sorts, etc that cable clipping is still a relatively tedious affair
The other thing I wondered about, in terms of labelling circuits, is there a sort of rotary stamp that the wire could be pulled through and it would stamp a code on the wire at regular intervals? If not, what other tricks do you use for la elling wires, or is it a case that you just judge by wire thickness and where it is found in the house (I suppose labelling is only really needed at ends but it may make extension easier in future if all wires were labeled along their length , no?)
