Bit of a different situation but we did a old cottage a few years rendered straight to the floor young lad was on the breaker went straight through the mains cable into the house went with such a bang and a spark!! We got electric company out it was so dangerous were it was burried you would of never known it was there and for it to go in that close, obviously previous renderer rather than leaving it exposed and setting the bead above thought f**k it IL just render over a mains cable....what a t**t!

You need phone jelly crimps.. Loads online like ebay ect cheap but you may need these quick to get it going.. They are like scotch locks.. Just push cables in and squeeze to clamp.. You can see how they work. Electrical trade counters have them...join up and tape the lot in a bag until your done and new cover arrives.

Thanks a million for all your replies mate , I’ll phone virgin and get a new cable put in as this cable needs to be chased into the brick work before rendering
