[QUOTE="Evans Electric, post: 484097, member: 1408"] It could well be one of those things from the Trade Mythology section . I'll list a few to remind us :- 1) You must not use tallow or lube to draw cables into conduit . ( [I] Correct but only applied in the days of VIR where it affected the braid & rubber. ) [/I] 2) Its always the neutral that burns out . ( [I]Jury is out on this one )[/I] 3) You can't pass a neutral through a switchbox or use a connector in a sw/box. ( [I]Total nonsense , been hearing it for years . ) [/I] 4) Metal capping /sheathing must be earthed . ([I] Only ever seen it on B,ham City Specifications ) [/I] [I]5) [/I] You can't pass the uncut leg of a ring through a socket box. ( [I]Another great myth I 've come upon a few times ) [/I] [/QUOTE]
