Product Description

Twin Earth Wire Cable Electrical Wire 6242y Grey PVC Insulated 1.5MM 2.5MM

APPLICATION

Fixed Wiring in Buildings

Lighting Circuits: Primarily used for wiring lighting points in domestic, commercial, and industrial buildings. The 1.5mm² size is standard for this purpose.

Power Socket Circuits (Ring & Radial): The 2.5mm² size is commonly used for wiring 13A power socket outlets in both ring final circuits and radial circuits.

Fixed Appliance Connections: Used to supply power to various fixed appliances such as immersion heaters, boilers, and cookers (depending on current requirements).

FEATURES

Rated voltage: 300/500V, fully applicable to low-voltage power distribution systems in both household and commercial environments.

Long-term working temperature: Maximum +70°C

Flame retardancy: Standard PVC has self-extinguishing properties, meaning it will not continue to burn after being removed from a flame, which helps prevent the fire from spreading through the cable.

FAQ

Q: What is the primary use of Twin & Earth cable?

A: Its primary use is for fixed wiring in domestic and commercial buildings. It is not suitable for portable appliances, extensions, or outdoor use without additional protection.

Q: Can I use 1.5mm² and 2.5mm² cable for the same applications?

A: No. They are designed for different circuits:

• 1.5mm²: Typically used for lighting circuits.

• 2.5mm²: Standard for socket outlets (ring/radial circuits) and fixed appliances like immersion heaters.

Q: What is the maximum temperature this cable can withstand?

A: It has two key temperature ratings:

• Continuous Operating Temp: Up to +70°C.

• Short-Circuit Temp (max. 5s): Up to +160°C.

Q: Is Twin & Earth cable suitable for outdoor installation?

A: No. The standard grey PVC sheath is not UV resistant and can degrade outdoors. It is designed for dry internal locations. For outdoors, it must be protected within a suitable conduit or a special exterior-grade cable should be used.

Q: Why is there a bare copper wire inside the cable?

A: The bare wire is the Circuit Protective Conductor (Earth wire). It provides a vital safety path for fault current to flow, causing the circuit breaker to trip and preventing electric shock. It must always be connected to the earth terminal in accessories and consumer units.
