Quick question if I could, how many pairs are in this cable please?
|
|
|
If 12mm diameter 10 pairs, 15mm 20 pairs

At least that is my answer

Thanks, wish it were that simple but already looked at that, and underneath the section in question:
Note: Cables available in pair range 2 - 100
10-20 pairs seems excessive for a drop. From what I've read 4 is more common, hopefully one of the Openreach bods will know

So thats a recently fitted UG feed.
Commonest used for small/single dwellings will be 2 pair. The answer will most likely be visible under the cleat, just before it says 0.5 (the gauge of the copper).
Can you not readily see either end ?

I believe the item code 034468 confirms it as 2 pair PET 0.5mm

Bingo ! What do I win ?

It's a 2 pair and a collectors item as B3 Cables have gone bust.

Per subject going to order a second line, I presume that'll be just fine with just a single pair in use at the moment?
Would a drop change from the DP be required to install a 3rd or a 2nd drop?
|
|

Yes, fine for a second line.
If you add more than you already have, probably run a second cable. Well they did for my place anyway.

Is the 2nd line to be in the same location as the 1st ? Happy days for the installer.
