Hi Derek,

Don't know if I am misreading the above, but it seems for pulling
thro conduit the teflon need to be the outermost insulation. These
cables are like normal grey cables, with 4 separately insulated
stranded wires inside the grey outer insulation. Of the 4 separately
insulated stranded wires, 2 are "translucent" while the other 2 are
red and black.
