Question UF cable outer sheathing nicked

The underlying conductors seem 100% okay.

Should I just electrical tape it?

Will this be buried or in free air? Please post a picture. http://www.doityourself.com/forum/li...rt-images.html

When I nick the sheath... I just put a little silicone glue over the nick and wrap it with tape.
