Ive seen a date stamp on a dc cable that I thought was 80's

Does this mean its a year 2000 ??

I think I'm correct in saying the first two numbers is the year and second two numbers is month.
Not sure what 12 is?     09 would be September.
Some 1980 cables were stamped with just the month then year.

yeah i did think 1st 2 numbers were year but it cant work in this case its weird

funny though when i google it on the museum someone asked exact same question but no reply, same date stamp same clear cable ??

Hi all,

Has anyone been able to shed anymore light on this topic?

Seems to be about 4-5 styles for the low 80's ( 3 styles attached )

Trying to find some concrete answers without much luck

cheers all
