BASEC Approved 6242Y (6242YH) twin and earth cable made to BS 6004 — two solid plain-copper 1.0mm² cores (brown / blue), 1.0mm² bare copper earth (fit green/yellow sleeving), grey PVC sheath, 300/500V. The standard UK size for domestic lighting circuits — ceiling roses, switch drops and LED lighting radials in homes and light commercial work. Circuit design and installation to BS 7671 by a competent person. Rated up to 16A 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 5m to 100m on this listing — pick your length above. Longer cuts work out cheaper per metre. For fixed indoor wiring.
