We've been shiping this 2x1.5mm² flat twin and earth cable into the UK market for a while now, and it's pretty much the standard for building wiring there—compliance with BS 6004 and BS 6242Y is something we confirm with a COA, though you'll want to double-check the local regs if you're importing into Northern Ireland.
The stranded copper conductors are Class 5, so they're flexible enough for tight conduit runs, and the PVC insulation handles -30°C to +90°C, which covers most indoor installations here—just keep in mind bending radius is 4D (about 36.8mm for the 5.1x9.2mm outer diameter), so don't kink it.
It's flame retardant to IEC60332-1, which matters for fire safety in domestic or commercail circuits, but it's not suited for direct burial in wet ground without additonal protection—that's a limitation we don't spin.
Colors are red, black, yellow, green, blue, and yellow-green for the earth core, so you can match existing wiring schemes easily, and the 12.1 Ω/km conductor resisance is better than some cheaper alternatives we've tested.
MOQ is usually 1000 meters or so, but our company can do smaller runs for sample orders—typically ships within 20 days after order confirmation, and we handle all the import docs (CE and VDE marks are standard) for EU or UK customs clearance.
MOQ for this cable is typically 1 km per size, but we can discuss smaller quantities for sample orders or first-time buyers—just get in touch.
Yes, we include copies of ISO9001, CE, CCC, and VDE certs with every shipment. Just request them when you place the order.
No, the maximum conductor resistance for 1.5mm² stranded copper is fixed at 12.1 Ω/km per BS 6004. Our production stays well within that limit.
Yes, it's rated for installation in underground ducts and buried applications, as long as it's within the temperature range of -30°C to +90°C.
Lead time is usually 10-15 working days from order confirmation, depending on current production load. We can expedite if needed.
