[QUOTE="Doc Hudson, post: 451434, member: 1607"] A large firm probably purchases its cable in bulk at reduced costs, and as Rapparee said its not uncommon for the final precise location of an accessory to be unknown at the time while you are pulling some cables in. So a meter or two of extra cable is unlikely to break the bank and can save a lot of hassle later. Another phrase sometimes used is "you can always cut it shorter, but you can't stretch it longer". A lot of PVC accessory cable is only pence per metre, so unlikely to ramp up a 70k bill? Even at B&Q prices wasting a few 100m drums of cable is not going to make much impact into 1k. Doc H. [/QUOTE]
