This topic is a spinoff from a post in the pictures of ugly cabling topic.
I have a couple of pieces of lead jacketed cable. The conductors have pulp insulation.
One thing I've noticed is that the color code on the insulation is just about impossible to decipher.
Bill mentioned that there was no color code (at least a code like we know today).
How did field technicians work with this type of cable if there were no base/stripe colors imprinted on the insulation? It does appear that some of the insulation is dyed.
I used a rotary pipe cutter to cut the lead jacket. It does a good job...as long as I don't tighten down too tightly on the cable.
