Thirdly it takes a sharp instrument to remove the Shrink Wrap and I do not want to score or cut the plastic case of the PP.
I am going in search of some of the caps that used to come on the ends of the cable rolls when I worked retail in the Electric Department. They were put there to stop water from migrating up the cable. Finding one big enough may be a challenge but the 0000 power cable is about the same size. In fact there is a fellow somewhere selling "Protective Caps for the TRX" which look very similar. I can not find the posting again.
