18 L2 L2 L1 C C L1 L2 L2 L1 C Terminal layout of a four gang switch. 16, to use a loop-in system would be very difficult, as wall lights rarely come with enough terminals or space to accommodate three Domestic Electrical Installations 31 cables and the associated conductors. For example, a feed would enter at, say, point A and loop to points C, D and E. Then switch cables would need to be run back from each of these points to the four-gang switch: complicated, congested and expensive in cable. 19).
28). 28 Incorrect cable clipping. Problems of embrittlement and cracking of PVC-sheathing and insulation can occur if PVC cable comes into contact with polystyrene. A reaction takes place between the two materials such that the plasticizer used in the manufacture of the PVC covering will 42 Electric Wiring: Domestic migrate onto the polystyrene, leaving the cable in a rigid condition. If the cable is disturbed at a later date, the PVC is likely to crack, with the obvious consequences. Typical of this situation is the use of polystyrene granules, generally in older properties, as thermal insulation.
42 Mineral cable termination. Preparing steel wire armoured cable In a domestic situation, probably the only time this cable would be used would be for supplies to garages, workshops, garden lighting, etc. 43 shows the component parts of an SWA cable termination. 43 Compression sleeve Gland SWA termination. Once sheathing has been removed from flat profile cables, flexible cords and mineral-insulated or SWA cables have been prepared, the next stage is to strip the insulation from the conductors.
