Gentlepeople* - Over the last forty years or so, I have seen two diametrically opposed general guides regarding what to do with spare cores in multicore cable. Sometimes the instructions are to "tie back and insulate, allowing sufficient length to allow connection if necessary", sometimes "connect all spare cores to earth". I need to have a debate with someone regarding spare cores and I'm wondering if anyone can help me any references from standards (military or commercial) that might provide definitive instruction. I have searched, but have not found anything. With thanks in anticipation, Regards, Mark * doesn't sound right, but I want to be PC -- Mark Hone, HESS Manager Wellman Defence Limited
