Thorne & Derrick asked Lee, what is your preferred method for stripping cable sheath from this type of waveform cable?
“With the existing mains cable, I cut a 2 inch flap with an insulated cable knife to then locate the centre of the waveform. I then begin marking up measurements to remove the remaining over sheath to the jointing instruction measurement,” explained Lee.
