Single Core Standard PVC Cable
All cables are made up of a number of strands. Generally these strands are 0.20mm or 0.30mm diameter. In our list for each cable we also give the cross sectional area in sq mm and the continuous current carrying capacity in amps. The breakdown of the cable specification 28/0.30mm, 2mm2, 17.5 amp is as follows: 28 strands of 0.30mm diameter, 2mm2 cross sectional area, 17.5 amp continuous current carrying capacity.
The following equation may prove useful to work out a cable size required : Watts divided by Volts = Amps
Coloured cables. When two colours are given, the first colour is the main colour, the second colour is the 'tracer' (usually two thin traces of colour which run straight down the cable). eg. Black/white has black as the main colour and white as the tracer colour.
Conductors of stranded copper wire insulated with PVC. This type of cable was original equipment on vehicles until recent years but is
now superceded by the higher performance thinwall cable on most new vehicles.
The quantity ordered will be supplied in one continuous length. Please note: Cables cut to length cannot be returned for exchange or refund.
