25 mm 3 Core Flex Cable – East African (90 M Roll)

The 25 mm² 3 Core Flex Cable – East African (90 M Roll) by Macire is designed for high-load flexible wiring applications, combining substantial conductor size with flexible three-core format and a full 90-metre roll for major installations. Manufactured by the trusted brand East African Cables and distributed via Macire, this cable suits heavy duty internal wiring, longer runs and circuits requiring higher capacity in Kenyan and East African settings.

⚙️ Key Features & Benefits

• ⚡ 25 mm² Stranded Copper Conductors – Offers significant current-carrying capacity and reduced voltage drop, ideal for heavy duty circuits and long runs.

• ???? 3-Core Flexible Design – Live, neutral and earth conductors bundled in a flexible cable format making routing, trunking or conduit installation easier.

• ???? Premium Brand – East African Cables – Recognised regional manufacturer with local presence and quality standards.

• ???? Large Roll Length – 90 Metres – One roll covers long runs or multiple circuits, minimizing joins (which are potential weak points) and saving installation time.

• ???? Robust PVC Insulation & Sheath – Built for indoor fixed wiring installations with enhanced durability and protection against mechanical stress and typical site conditions.

• ???? Designed for East African Markets – Supports wiring installations across Kenya & the region, with Macire providing local support and supply infrastructure.

???? Technical Specifications

Note: While listings for 25 mm² 3-core flex cables are less common in retail specs, the size is consistent with heavy duty flexible wiring in the region. Use actual product label for final verification.

???? Application Areas & Use-Cases

The Macire 25 mm² 3-Core Flex Cable is ideal for:

• ???? Socket circuits or power outlets feeding heavy-load appliances or motors in residential & commercial builds.

• ???? Wiring long conduit/trunking runs where voltage drop must be minimized and cable size matters.

• ???? Service rooms, workshops or rental units where higher capacity flexible cable is preferred over rigid fixed wiring.

• ???? Electrical installations where future expansion is expected and larger cable size provides head-room for growth.

• ???? Flexible routing in confined spaces (via trunking/conduit) for heavy-current feeders.

???? Maintenance Tips & How to Extend Service Life

• ✔️ Avoid Sharp Bends / Kinks – Even flexible cables with large cross-section require correct bending radius to maintain integrity.

• ✔️ Avoid Exposure to Direct Sunlight / Heat – PVC insulation may degrade under high heat or UV over extended periods.

• ✔️ Store Roll Properly Pre-Installation – Keep in a cool, dry location, free from moisture and chemicals.

• ✔️ Inspect Insulation Periodically – Especially in exposed runs, check for cuts, abrasions or discolouration and address them.

• ✔️ Secure Cable Properly – Use clips, trunking or conduit to hold the cable firmly and protect from mechanical stress.

• ✔️ Ensure Load & Installation Conditions are Within Spec – Larger size doesn’t guarantee unlimited current; ambient temperature, grouping and installation method still matter.

???? DIY Installation Guide

1. ???? Measure required length plus approx 10-15% extra for slack, service loops and future access.

2. ✂️ Cut the cable from the roll using a proper insulated cable cutter; avoid damaging the outer sheath.

3. ???? Strip the outer PVC sheath carefully to expose the three insulated cores (Live, Neutral, Earth).

4. ????️ Strip each core insulation to the correct length, ensuring no copper strands are nicked or damaged.

5. ???? Route the cable through trunking or conduit as required, and secure at regular intervals (~300-400mm) when exposed.

6. ???? Terminate at sockets, switchboards or appliances using correct colour-coding and appropriate connectors.

7. ✅ Perform continuity and insulation resistance tests before energising the circuit.

8. ???? After installation, ensure the cable is not under strain, is not pinched, and is labelled if needed for future maintenance.

???? Do’s and Don’ts

Do’s

• ✅ Use the correct cable size for the load; 25 mm² is a large capacity size and suited for heavier circuits.

• ✅ Secure and support cable runs properly; avoid loose or hanging cable.

• ✅ Use proper terminals and follow local wiring code and colour-coding.

• ✅ Label circuits and maintain neat installation for future maintenance and safety.

Don’ts

• ❌ Don’t assume unlimited current simply because cable size is large – installation conditions (ambient temperature, bundling, route) still affect safe current.

• ❌ Don’t use outdoors or in direct sunlight unless the cable is explicitly rated for outdoor or UV-exposed use.

• ❌ Don’t force cable around sharp edges or pinch points without protection; always provide conduit/edge protection.

• ❌ Don’t ignore visible damage — insulation cracks, excessive wear or overheating signs should trigger immediate replacement.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Q1: What current can a 25 mm² 3-core flex cable safely carry?
A1: The exact current capacity depends on installation conditions including ambient temperature, grouping, insulation, and installation method. While general guidance for 25 mm² flexible cables indicates high current capacity, always consult manufacturer tables or Macire specification for accurate rating.

Q2: Is this cable suitable for outdoor or exposed installation?
A2: Generally this cable is designed for indoor, fixed installations. For outdoor, UV-exposed or buried use you should choose a cable explicitly rated for those conditions.

Q3: Why choose a 90-metre roll?
A3: A long roll (90 m) provides flexibility for long runs or multiple circuits from one roll, reduces joins (potential weak points) and improves installation efficiency and cost-effectiveness.

Q4: Is this genuinely the East African Cables brand?
A4: Yes—East African Cables is a recognised manufacturer in Kenya/East Africa with a broad cable product range and quality credentials.

Q5: Does Macire supply other sizes or roll lengths of flex cable?
A5: Yes—Macire distributes a variety of flex cable sizes (from small sizes like 0.5mm² up to large sizes like 25mm²) and various roll lengths to meet different wiring requirements in Kenya/East Africa.
