1.5 mm 5 Core Flexible Cable – West (Per Meter)

???? Product Overview

The 1.5 mm 5 Core Flexible Cable – West (Per Meter) is a premium multi-core copper cable engineered for demanding multi-phase, control, and automation wiring. Each of its five color-coded copper conductors provides independent current or signal paths within a single sheath, making it ideal for industrial machinery, PLC panels, motor control systems, and complex lighting installations.

Manufactured under Macire’s strict quality standards, this cable delivers superior electrical performance — combining high conductivity, mechanical flexibility, and exceptional thermal resistance. Whether you’re interlinking motors, sensors, or lighting circuits, the West 1.5 mm 5 Core Cable ensures safe and organized wiring that meets both KEBS and IEC specifications.

⚙️ Technical Specifications

???? Application Areas

✅ Three-phase motor and pump connections
✅ Industrial control and automation circuits
✅ Machine tools and panel interlink wiring
✅ HVAC systems and building controls

???? Installation & Setup Tips

• Identify each core carefully before termination to avoid phase mix-up.

• Use PVC trunking or conduits to protect against abrasion.

• Connect the green/yellow core to earth for safety grounding.

• Crimp lugs on strand ends for clean and secure connections.

• Avoid tight bends — minimum radius ≈ 6 × cable diameter.

???? Care & Maintenance

• Coil neatly after use to avoid kinks or internal strand breaks.

• Wipe clean with a dry cloth only; never expose to oil or water.

• Check for cuts or insulation damage during routine inspection.

• Replace immediately if any core shows oxidation or burn marks.

⚠️ Do’s & Don’ts

✅ Do use cable glands and strain reliefs in junction boxes.
✅ Do test continuity and phase rotation after installation.
❌ Don’t exceed rated current (≈ 16 A per core).
❌ Don’t mix signal and power circuits without shielding.

☀️ Integration & Compatibility

Integrates seamlessly with Macire switchgear, distribution boards, solar controllers, and industrial automation systems. Excellent for use with PLC panels, three-phase motors, and variable speed drives.
