The original wiring of our 1938-built house was all in twin plus separate earth wire for its 2A and 15A sockets. The earth wire was substantial 7 strand bare wire, jointed with brass nuts, bolts and washers. All replaced shortly after moving in nearly 40 years ago. A couple of lengths kept in a box in the loft as a curio are still in excellent condition, even the red rubber insulation.
