    Rodent Chewed Some outer insulation off 2.5mm Cable

    Hi, I have just looked under a kitchen unit where I can see some 2.5mm cable that is feeding a 13A fused Spur. It looks as though some of the insulation has been chewed off in a few places but none of them breaking the coloured insulation on the individual wires. What is the best course of...
