SHPELEC® 6242YH Twin and Earth Cable 2.5mm 2m Electrical Mains Socket Ring Wire BASEC Approved Multiple Lengths (2 metres Cable)

BASEC Approved 6242Y (6242YH) twin and earth cable made to BS 6004 — two solid plain-copper 2.5mm² cores (brown / blue), 1.5mm² bare copper earth (fit green/yellow sleeving), grey PVC sheath, 300/500V. A commonly used UK size for domestic socket ring-final and radial circuits. Circuit design, protective device selection and installation must comply with BS 7671 and be completed by a competent person. Rated up to 27A clipped direct (BS 7671 reference method C). Actual capacity depends on installation method, grouping, insulation and run length — always check before sizing a circuit. Solid-core T&E is meant to be stiff: it dresses cleanly into clips and trunking, holds its shape in back boxes and stays put once terminated. It is not a flex — for appliance leads use flexible cable. Cut fresh from the reel: lengths from 1m to 100m on this listing — pick your length above. Longer cuts work out cheaper per metre. For fixed indoor wiring.
