What are your thoughts regarding safety on this equipment cable entry?

Guinea Pig over 2 years ago

My first post!

Got a new piece of equipment to be fed from 63A/80A single phase supply. Requires at least 2x 3C cables entering sized at 16mmsq (H07 type).

Glands wont fit, no cable strain relief...

Thoughts appreciated.

From memory the 3c16 cable are 28mm diameter

Sounds like a lot - 3C 16mm² SWA is less than 20mm dia.

The H07 at CEF is listed as just over 23mm diameter https://www.cef.co.uk/catalogue/products/2015174-16mm-3-core-ho7rnf-rubber-flexible-cable-cut-length-sold-by-the-mtr?

So a gland of M32 should just about do it - if of course there was any room for the nut, but in a 35mm high box no chance.
