1.0mm Twin with Earth Electrical Cable

The 1.0mm Twin with Earth Electrical Cable is a light-duty fixed wiring cable designed for domestic lighting circuits that require an earth connection. It consists of two PVC-insulated solid copper conductors for live and neutral, along with an uninsulated bare copper earth wire, all enclosed within a durable flat PVC sheath. This cable is ideal for internal installations in homes, offices, and light commercial environments, especially where safety and compliance with grounding requirements are essential.

Product Features and Product Specifications

Twin Core with Bare Earth Wire

Includes two insulated copper cores (live and neutral) and a separate bare copper earth conductor, allowing safe grounding in lighting and control circuits.

1.0mm² Conductor Size

Designed for low-current circuits such as ceiling lights, wall lights, and switch loops, where 1.0mm² conductors are typically specified.

PVC Insulated and Sheathed

The inner cores are insulated with PVC and enclosed in a flat-profile PVC sheath that offers good resistance to moisture, abrasion, and general wear.

Easy to Install in Conduits and Trunking

The flat design makes it easy to route through surface trunking, conduits, or directly under plaster in dry indoor environments.

Complies with Electrical Safety Standards

Manufactured to meet recognized standards for fixed wiring, ensuring reliable electrical performance and user safety.
