[QUOTE="Phoenix, post: 499506, member: 8133"] I agree with you, generally it doesn't needs it, although there are possibly a few instances where the risk of damage means it probably does need it (or more likely, a better route for it finding). And likeise underground would require it (but better to just pick SWA instead). So while you could come up with some situations where you could deem it necessary, you'd change something else instead. The only time I can think of where you might want to install it in machanical protetcion is somewhere like a warehouse, where its all wired at high level on tray, but you drop down the walls in galv conduit. Anyway, back to EVSE. They go on about Hi-Tuff but seem to miss SY out. Putting asside the big question mark over its use in installations under BS7671, it certainly cant be used outdoors unless in containment, the sun gets to the sheath, which at first goes a misty white, then it starts to crack and moisure gets in, braid rusts, and you are left looking at a horrible brown thing in a misty white covering.
