Each core contains 24 strands of 0.2mm diameter copper conductor, giving the cable a flexible profile suitable for pulling through conduit, routing behind skirting boards, and making tight bends in domestic lighting and appliance circuits.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for light electrical installations where a flat, low-profile cable run is needed, the oval cross-section measures 3.6 x 5.9mm, making it less obtrusive than round cable when run along surfaces or under carpets. The cable is rated at 6A maximum current, which suits table lamps, standard lights, doorbells, low-power appliances and similar applications on lighting circuits and low-load spur lines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe white PVC sheath is BSI BS6500 and VDE approved, meeting UK and European standards for flexible mains cable used in domestic and commercial electrical work. The 100m reel length allows multiple shorter runs to be cut from a single spool, reducing waste and simplifying stock management for electricians and contractors working across multiple properties.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCSA\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0.75mm²\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eStrands\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2 x 24\/0.2mmØ\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCable : dimensions\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3.6 x 5.9mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCurrent\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e6.0A max.\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eColour\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWhite\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePacked\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e4 reels\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLength\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e100m\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eFrequently Asked\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat applications is this cable suitable for?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 0.75mm² 6A rating suits table lamps, pendant lights, standard lighting circuits, doorbells, low-power appliances and similar applications.
