MEGA 1.5 mm² cable

Key Features

1.5 mm² Conductor

• The conductor cross-section of 1.5 mm² means the cable can safely carry moderate loads — commonly used for lighting circuits and similar electrical circuits.

Copper Stranded Conductor

• Provides better flexibility and easier installation compared to solid core.

• Good electrical conductivity ensures efficient current flow.

Insulation & Sheathing

• PVC insulation protects against electrical leakage.

• PVC sheath adds mechanical protection and resistance to minor impacts.

Available Core Options

• 2-Core: Typically phase + neutral (used in single phase lighting).

• 3-Core: Phase + neutral + earth (for circuits requiring earth).

• 4-Core: Often used where an additional signal or return conductor is needed.

Typical Current Capacity

NOTE: Always check local electrical codes for exact allowed load and breaker sizes.

Common Applications

Residential lighting circuits
Switch loops and fixture feeds
Home automation and control circuits
Small socket spur circuits (where permitted)
Wiring within distribution boards (internal connections)

Safety & Installation Tips

• Always use a circuit breaker or MCB that matches the cable rating (usually 10 A for 1.5 mm² lighting circuits).

• Ensure earthing/grounding is correctly done, especially with 3-core cable.

• Do not overload the cable — excessive current causes overheating and can lead to hazards.
