We don't know what cable size was used - but 30 m of 1.0 mm^2 flex will
only be just over 1 ohm and I can't see that causing too much in the way

I don't remember if the B+Q tags said what the conductor size was.
But Mr Multi-meter says the conductors are 0.5, 0.7 and 0.8 ohms, so I'd
guess it's 1mm.sq.
Where's my roll of gaffer tape? Well, it wouldn't pass muster for
offshore use, but it's a good enough fix for me.
