datadiffusion Posted September 25, 2014 Share Posted September 25, 2014 This seems MUCH better than trunking lid... http://t.co/bzsLeDHxbo Facebook page for company - https://www.facebook.com/cabletongue For a tenner it's cheaper than trunking lid too by 3 uses. I will review properly as soon as it arrives...

Lwillis Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 I've got a fishtape, it looks similar its useless for long runs as it coils back on itself and you usually end up with a loop of it about 4m away in the void Link to comment https://www.thesecurityinstaller.co.uk/community/topic/37432-cable-tongue/#findComment-401294 Share on other sites More sharing options...
datadiffusion Posted September 26, 2014 Author Share Posted September 26, 2014 I think it's designed for vertical fishing i.e up plasterboard, I'd still use rods for long horiztontal stuff.

norman Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 I always used to wrap insulating tape round my ceiling fitters wire etc, used to cringe @ live mains in ceilings / voids etc. eta, that **** also reminds me of the coil in a tape measure, like a wild rattles with a razor body. Having said that I suppose your OK JW? Nothing is foolproof to a sufficiently talented fool.

whistle Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 I once put my hand in a void to grab a cable that I had pushed up from another void. I managed to grab hold of a 30amp JB with no lid on it. It almost knocked me off the top of the step ladders I was stood on at the time, my god it hurt.

Rulland Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 I always wear decent gloves when putting my hand into 'unknown' voids, I'm suprised anyone does anything less these days, sharps, glass, not funny what some people put somewhere tbh, risk assessments and all that.

whistle Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 This was in a warehouse we where working in last week. The radio blasting out Bollywood classics was on the end of it. I switched it off as soon as I seen it. Link to comment https://www.thesecurityinstaller.co.uk/community/topic/37432-cable-tongue/#findComment-401335 Share on other sites More sharing options...
