Great. I have bought a Masterseal SFCU and it works ok.
Using the black pond rubber cable left over from a TLC order.


You're not meant to use flex for fixed wiring.


Even for the SFCU to light drip-loop?

Cable to the Masterseal-SFCU with be HiTuf or SWA
or Singles in black heavy-duty conduit (I have all spare).

Cable from Masterseal-SFCU to Light drip-loop would
be about 9-12-inches black ?TRF07? rubber from TLC.

HiTuf will not fit into a light fitting.
PVC FTE is not well regarded in OSG re UV protection.
Pyro would be horribly expensive as I lack the tools.
FireTuff is not a flex (solid-core), is silicone (high temp),
and most probably UV rated (re stricter fire code needs).

Would it be better to use white 2-core-w/CPC FireTuff?
It's only about £1 a metre so would only be £1-2 at most.

Thanks.
