Accident chopped off the grey wire in a 3 core.

Stripping back using the cpc - you then have to count the conductors before you cut the sheath - he didn’t!
I did it once on a 3 core and earth but had plenty in the cavity stud wall - I always remember that moment when I’m second fixing and cutting the sheath!

Yep. I’ve done it once too! Just enough left to use a Wago.

it can be critical which conductor you cut. mistakes can be fatal.
