Repairing insulation

MrJack96
What is acceptable practice to repair basic insulation when it’s been nicked. Can we use self amalgamation tape or should we cut and trough crimp? 


thanks guys

    Keep in mind that if you cut and re-join the conductor, BS 7671 then requires the joint to be enclosed in a suitable enclosure - which heat-shrink, tape etc alone I suspect wouldn't suffice.
