Hi Guys,
I have damaged the 6mm cable to our shower which runs accross the loft.
Whilst it has not blown the fuse, which i have now taken out it does not look safe.
Is it o.k to just cut and rejoin the cable using a 30amp junction box?
Many thanks
If it is accessible then yes. If not accessible then will need to be crimped. With the latter normal to used shrink sleeve over whole job. But I would never send someone to do a job like that without first seeing it and it may be not the best option.
Thanks a lot for your interest.
Tha cable is accessable,I have fitted a 45A DP switch where the cable was damaged and all seems well.
Do you have any doubts on doing this.
Cheers.
