Hi there

I have a cable which need to be removed from an old building. Its that PILC stuf from around mid 1950's.

Does anyone know if it was ever common practice to wrap the stuff in Asbestos?

We are quoting against another company for a large mains change and need to include the safe removal of it if it is the nasty stuff (not going to expose my guys to that stuff).

Advised the client to get it tested. It just looks suspicious.

We will most likely get the job anyways (as we are the clients prefered guys)

Does anyone know anywhere in Joburg, that they have used or can recommend, to test it if I take a sample.

My old work mate died from the stuff, was exposed a lot to it before it was know to be nasty, so I take no chances. Horrific way to go.
