Discuss best tool to chop 150mm 4core swa in the UK Electrical Forum area at ElectriciansForums.net

Have some 150mm 4 core which is to be stripped from its tray and (ahem) disposed of. However it's a heavy blighter so want to chop it into metre long lengths. What's the best tool to be achieving this?

Anything you like really - including a domestic knife & fork - as long as it's got a Pikey on the end of it!
 
You can borrow mine. She's great, VERY fit & strong and even walks at heel now so theres no need for the leash.

You will never learn will you Geordie!, I think it's safe to say she will crush your nuts for that.
 
That sort of thing pays for itself Dav, if you can do it quickly.
IE cut it in place and worry about getting it out after you have returned the tool?

So now she's a Dog, Geordie It's been really nice knowing you.
 
Don't get this thread,no-one in Manchester needs ask how to chop and chor copper cable...it's like mammalian grip response,we are just born knowin'it :bow:
 
Everybody knows how to chop copper. I'm looking for further advice on most efficient methods other forum members can shed light on. Pikey seems to be the best
