trirated panel control wire cable 6mm black 100 meter roll

Why Choose the Eland Cables Tri-Rated 6mm² Black Cable?

The Eland Cables Tri-Rated 6mm² Black Cable (TRIRATE6BLK1) is a high-capacity panel wiring cable engineered for industrial control systems, switchgear, and electrical installations requiring robust current handling and long-term reliability.

Manufactured using a flexible Class 5 plain annealed copper conductor with heat-resistant PVC insulation, this cable provides excellent flexibility and performance in demanding environments, making it ideal for installation within control panels and electrical enclosures.

With a 6mm² conductor size, this cable supports significantly higher current loads, making it suitable for power distribution and heavy-duty control circuits. The black insulation is commonly used for general-purpose wiring. It complies with BS6231, UL758 and CSA standards, ensuring suitability for both UK and international applications.
