[QUOTE="sleepy, post: 244185, member: 15620"] I am trying to find the definitive answer to how to correctly terminate twin and earth cable. Should cables be doubled back before termination or left as a single strand? When would you use one method and not the other? Does the size of cable make a difference? Does the number of conductors in the terminal make a difference? Should cables ever be twisted together? This may sound a stupid question but is ther an official standard or guidance available. I have talked to a few people and so far had different answers [/QUOTE]
