{"product_id":"cavo-flat-copper-cable-2-core-1-5mm-clear","title":"Cavo Flat Copper Cable 2 Core 1.5mm - Clear","description":"\u003ch5\u003eDescription\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is a flexible two core cable with a flat profile and a clear sheath, so the pair of conductors sits side by side rather than twisted into a round flex. The gauge is 1.5mm, which puts it at the heavier end of the domestic lighting flexes, and it is VDE approved. It is sold by the metre, and however many metres you order arrive as a single continuous length rather than cut pieces, so you can measure and trim to suit the job in front of you.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe keep this on the shelf for rewiring table and floor lamps, refreshing a tired pendant drop, and any job where the flex is visible and a bulky black cable would draw the eye. The clear sheath reads as a soft grey line against pale plaster, white paint or glass, which is why we reach for it in bedrooms, over dining tables and along shelving. It suits anyone happy with basic wiring work as much as it suits electricians restoring older pieces, and it is a sensible stock item if you make or repair lamps regularly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe flat form is the point of it: it lies close rather than rolling, and it hangs with less spring than a round flex, so a pendant drop stays where you set it. The clear covering shows dust more readily than a coloured cable, so run a dry cloth along the length now and again with the power off at the switch. Look over it while you do, and replace any run that is nicked, stiff or discoloured rather than patching it. It carries a one year warranty. We stock the same flat cable in a lighter gauge, plus round clear and coloured braided flexes in the range if you want the cable to be part of the look. Plugs, connectors and cord grips are separate.\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\u003eClear\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCeiling Mountable\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eYes\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\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e7mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3.3mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterials Used\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePVC, Copper\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\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\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProduct Care\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e(1) Wipe clean with a dry cloth, do not use any cleaning detergents, do not use rough or coarse material to clean.\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\u003eWhat size is the cable?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt measures roughly 7mm across the flat and 3.3mm thick, and it is supplied in 1m increments.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIf I order several metres, will it come as one piece?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes.
