Why Choose the Partex ECHS264EARTH(GRN/YEL) 2:1 Green/Yellow Heat Shrink Tubing?

The Partex ECHS264EARTH(GRN/YEL) is a professional green/yellow 2:1 heat shrink tubing designed for protective earth conductor identification, electrical wire insulation and cable protection. Featuring a nominal supplied diameter of 6.4 mm and a nominal fully recovered diameter of 3.2 mm, this dual-colour heat shrink sleeving provides a neat, close-fitting covering around suitably sized electrical conductors, cable assemblies and connections.

The distinctive green/yellow colour combination supports the identification of protective earth conductors in electrical installations. Its 2:1 shrink ratio allows the tubing to recover to approximately half its original internal diameter when heated correctly, helping create a secure-fitting sleeve around compatible wires and conductor termination areas.

Supplied in a practical 75 m pack, the ECHS264EARTH(GRN/YEL) is particularly suitable for electrical contractors, control panel builders, equipment manufacturers and maintenance engineers who require consistent protective earth identification sleeving. Its heat-activated design allows individual sleeves to be cut to the required length, supporting efficient electrical assembly, conductor marking and maintenance operations.

Key Advantages

  • Green/yellow colour combination provides recognisable identification for protective earth conductors.
  • 2:1 heat shrink ratio allows the tubing to recover to approximately half its supplied internal diameter.
  • 6.4 mm nominal supplied diameter accommodates compatible electrical conductors and wiring assemblies.
  • 3.2 mm nominal fully recovered diameter provides a close-fitting sleeve after correct heat application.
  • Suitable for identifying protective earth conductors in electrical panels, machinery and equipment.
  • Provides an additional insulating and protective covering around compatible wiring.
  • Helps protect covered conductors against abrasion and general handling wear.
  • Flexible tubing can be cut into individual lengths for different installation requirements.
  • Heat-activated recovery creates a tidy finish without conventional tape wrapping.
  • 75 m pack quantity supports repetitive electrical assembly, manufacturing and maintenance work.

Key Features

  • Partex ECHS264EARTH(GRN/YEL) heat shrink tubing.
  • 2:1 shrink ratio for controlled diameter reduction.
  • Nominal supplied diameter of 6.4 mm.
  • Nominal fully recovered diameter of 3.2 mm.
  • Green/yellow identification colours for protective earth conductors.
  • Heat-activated shrinking for a close-fitting protective covering.
  • Suitable for compatible electrical conductors and cable assemblies.
  • Provides an additional protective layer around covered wiring.
  • Helps protect conductor sleeving areas against abrasion.
  • Can be cut into individual sleeves to suit installation requirements.
  • Suitable for installation using controlled hot-air heating equipment.
  • Total supplied length: 75 m.

Reliable Green/Yellow Heat Shrink Sleeving for Protective Earth Conductors

Clear identification of protective earth conductors is an important part of electrical installation safety. The Partex ECHS264EARTH(GRN/YEL) provides a practical way to apply green/yellow identification to suitably sized conductors, particularly where earth wire ends, protective bonding conductors or termination areas require visible marking. Its distinctive dual-colour appearance helps differentiate protective earth wiring from other conductors within distribution boards, control panels and electrical equipment.

With a nominal diameter of 6.4 mm before shrinking and 3.2 mm after full recovery, this tubing accommodates compatible conductors and connections within its dimensional range. It should be selected so that it passes over the conductor before heating and contracts sufficiently to grip the covered surface afterwards. Apply controlled heat evenly using suitable equipment. Green/yellow identification must be reserved for the appropriate protective conductor function in accordance with applicable wiring regulations, and heat shrink sleeving does not replace a correctly designed protective earth connection.

Typical Applications

  • Protective earth conductor identification in electrical installations.
  • Electrical distribution boards and control panel wiring.
  • Green/yellow identification at earth terminals and connection points.
  • Industrial machinery protective bonding circuits.
  • Electrical equipment assembly and manufacturing.
  • Automation and instrumentation panel wiring.
  • Identification of compatible protective conductors and cable assemblies.
  • Electrical maintenance, repair and refurbishment.
  • Commercial and industrial electrical installation work.
  • Production of pre-cut protective earth identification sleeves.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Partex ECHS264EARTH(GRN/YEL) used for?

The Partex ECHS264EARTH(GRN/YEL) is green/yellow heat shrink tubing primarily used to identify protective earth conductors and provide an additional protective covering around compatible electrical wiring and conductor termination areas.

What does the 2:1 shrink ratio mean?

A 2:1 shrink ratio means the tubing can recover to approximately half its original internal diameter when heated correctly. This product has a nominal diameter of 6.4 mm before shrinking and 3.2 mm after full recovery.

Why is the tubing green and yellow?

The green/yellow colour combination is used for protective earth conductor identification under applicable electrical wiring standards. It helps electricians and maintenance personnel distinguish protective conductors from live and neutral wiring.

How much Partex ECHS264EARTH(GRN/YEL) tubing is supplied?

The product is supplied in a 75 m pack, providing heat shrink sleeving that can be cut into individual pieces for electrical installation, control panel assembly and protective earth conductor identification.

How is the ECHS264EARTH(GRN/YEL) heat shrink tubing installed?

Cut the tubing to the required length, slide it over the compatible conductor, and apply controlled heat evenly using suitable hot-air equipment until the sleeve contracts around the surface. Avoid overheating, protect nearby components and follow appropriate electrical safety procedures.

Can green/yellow heat shrink tubing be used to identify live or neutral conductors?

No. Green/yellow identification is reserved for protective conductors under applicable wiring standards and should not be used to identify live or neutral conductors. Always follow the relevant electrical installation regulations and conductor identification requirements.
