Hello first post so go easy.
I am chasing a mains cable into a wall as it is currently in a plastic trunking. As it is fairly old it had a shed load of paint sealing it and as I have opened it I have caught the outside insulation.
The individual cables insulation are not damaged in any way so I don't think a splice of any sort is needed.
Is there a accepted insulation I should use before I chase it into the wall and put steel channel over it? Somehow just wrapping in tape didn't seem right
Thanks!
