{"product_id":"cavo-braided-copper-cable-3-core-0-75mm-dark-blue","title":"Cavo Braided Copper Cable 3 Core 0.75mm - Dark Blue","description":"\u003ch5\u003eDescription\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe outer sleeve here is a woven braid in a deep, inky blue, wrapped over three cores of 0.75mm conductor. Braid changes how a flex reads: it catches light along its length rather than showing the flat shine of moulded PVC. The blue is dark enough to read almost navy under a low lamp. Order as many metres as you need and it arrives as a single continuous run, so there is no joining involved. It is VDE approved.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe reach for braided flex on pendant sets, rise and fall fittings and standard lamps where the cable is on show as much as the shade is. It carries an earth core, which is why we choose it for metal fittings that call for one, and why the slimmer flexes elsewhere in the range stop short. Dark blue sits well against brass and aged copper, and reads quieter than black against a pale ceiling. It suits a project where the flex is part of the look rather than something to hide. Dry indoor rooms are its place; we would not run it outdoors or through damp.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe braid is tightly woven over the insulated cores, and that weave is what gives it its texture in the hand. Keep it clean by running a dry cloth along the length now and then; braid holds dust in the weave more readily than a smooth sleeve, and a stiff brush will only fluff the fibres. Solvents and polishes have no business near it. It carries a one year warranty. We stock the braided flexes in black, white, red, purple, lime green and blue as well, so a flex can be matched to a fitting or deliberately set against it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch5\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\n\n\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eColour\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDark Blue\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0.10KG\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLength\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1000mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDiameter\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e6mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterials Used\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFabric, Copper, PVC\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEnergy Class\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNot Applicable\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eInput Voltage\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e220-240V~50\/60Hz\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIP Rating\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIP20\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWarranty\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1yr\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUKCA\/CE\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eYes\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePieces Included\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eInstallation\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRequires Installation By Qualified Electrician\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCountry of Origin\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eChina\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003ch5\u003eFrequently Asked\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow is the cable supplied if I order several metres?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is sold in 1m units and the quantity you order is supplied as one continuous length, so ordering five gives you a single 5m run rather than five separate pieces.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow thick is the finished cable?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe braided cable measures 6mm in diameter overall, with three 0.75mm cores inside the sleeve.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy choose three core rather than two?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe third core is an earth, so this is the version to use with fittings that require earthing, typically metal ones.
