Lighting Wiring Consideration.

I am going to use some Henley Paper Insulated House Wiring cable for a lighting circuit. The manufacturer is W.T. Henley's Telegraph Works Company Ltd., Holborn Viaduct, London E.C.1.I am using their Section CA catalogue.

The cable is called YT type. It is paper insulated house wire.


I am thinking of using 3.029 inch twin cable. It is rated at 7.8 Amps. I will use a 5 Amp fuse in the fuse box.


Q1. What is the cable outer covering made of?


Q.2. What is the weight of the cable per 1,000 yards in cwt?


Q.3. What is the price per 1,000 yards.


The year is 1927, the month June.


Z.


Edit. Some minor typos corrected.

  • Don't forget... 3036 fuses' to both the neutral and live!!


    It's ok, for insulation, as the wooden CCU will not transfer any current outside of the CCU as the wood, unless damp / wet, is ok!! 


    If needed, I actually have BRAND NEW imperial MICC pots, and glands, from the mid 60's, still in their boxes, haha, (TRUE too!!).
