Cable news - Dec 2022 magazine

I know this matter has been raised before, but I'm confused.

p92 of Dec 2022 magazine states conductors of minimum 2.5mm must be used. Last time I checked a 1.5mm cable was rated at up to 20 amp in open air. As we (are supposed to and I trust we do) unroll our cable and the feed to the post is rated at 16 amp then 1.5mm is easily up to the job and safe.

The one continuous length of cable requirement  is also questionable. If you have a BSI approved/rated connector that is up to the job, I cannot see how legally the club can enforce a higher standard.

I suppose all this goes out of the window as they are assuming members are devoid of any common sense.

My thoughts exactly, but as every time trust is mentioned there seems to be a general consensus that CC Ltd members are basically dishonest therefore there is a real rick that many a nice new shiney EHU cable is likely to go missing šŸ˜ƒ.

Very true but you don't have to be a CC Ltd member to stay on a CAMC site.
