electure, Thats is a new one on me, how I strip the armor has never been asked of me by an inspector.

I would be interested in anything that says we must use rotary cutters, not being a wise guy, I just have never heard that.

I still use a hack saw if closer that my roto splits, other guys have a fancy pair of dykes they use to kink and cut the armor.

I also run 4/0 - 4 MC, sorry I do not have a 2" pair of roto splits. [Linked Image]

Some of the guys have roto splits that take up to about 1" OD cable.

Bob.
