Removing rubber sheath

[morqthana]

Oo-err missus. That's got that out of the way.

How realistic is it to be able to strip 11m of sheath off 10mm² H05 or H07RN-F 3-core cable?

6 inches at a time, reem with a stripper, go down with a knife....

It ain't gonna be easy but it can be done I suppose.

But why?

But why?

Supply to an outbuilding, It's in a duct "buried" in gravel between a patio and a fence, so no chance of accidentally JCBing it, so it doesn't need to be armoured, and it will be easier to pull through the ducting than SWA.

Inside the house it needs to be singles as they will run in surface trunking behind kitchen units, including a 90° bend. I could join to singles at the point of entry, or I could just carry on with the cores of the cable, unbroken.

Just clip the cable don't use trunking?

And I think swa is easier to work with/ fish etc.
