        Electra-Cables | 1.5mm2 Twin and Earth Flat TPS Cable 20 Metre Cut | 450/750V PVC/PVC

        The Electra-Cables 15TE20 is a 1.5mm2 twin and earth flat building cable supplied as a measured 20 metre cut, rated 450/750V. The 15TE20 uses plain annealed copper conductors to AS/NZS 1125, PVC V90 core insulation, and a white 3V-90 easy-tear outer sheath. Core colours are red, black and green/yellow, with a normal operating temperature of 75 degrees C.

        Most jobs calling for 1.5mm2 twin and earth do not consume a full manufacturer's drum. A lighting circuit, a single added point, a shed run or a switch relocation typically absorbs ten to twenty metres, and the remainder becomes dead inventory sitting in the van. A measured 20 metre cut covers the run without that carrying cost. The 3V-90 easy-tear sheath separates by hand at each termination, which reduces preparation time on smaller jobs.

        Cut lengths allow contractors to purchase the exact quantity a quote specifies, which keeps job costing accurate and prevents offcuts accumulating across successive jobs. The 15TE20 arrives ready to run and is priced per cut rather than per drum, which suits an individual lighting circuit or a single added point. Plain annealed copper conductors manufactured to AS/NZS 1125 terminate the same way as drum stock, requiring no change to tooling or termination technique. Rapid delivery on cut cable means a short-notice job does not depend on a wholesaler trip.

        Features

        • 1.5mm2 conductor size — sized for domestic and commercial lighting circuits and light power subcircuits.
        • Twin and earth flat construction — active, neutral and earth in one flat profile that sits flat against studs and joists.
        • Plain annealed copper conductors — manufactured to AS/NZS 1125, terminating cleanly into standard mechanisms and bars.
        • PVC V90 insulation — the core insulation grade specified for the 15TE20 across all three cores.
        • 3V-90 easy-tear sheath — the white outer sheath tears back by hand, cutting stripping time at every termination.
        • 450/750V rating — rated for fixed wiring in domestic, commercial and industrial installations.
        • 75 degrees C operating temperature — the stated normal operating temperature for the conductor in service.
        • Colour-coded cores — red active, black neutral and green/yellow earth, matching standard Australian identification.
        • 20 metre measured cut — the 15TE20 ships as a cut length rather than a full drum, so small jobs carry no surplus.
        • Multiple installation methods — suited to unenclosed runs, enclosure in conduit, direct burial and underground ducts.
        • Not rated for mechanical damage — the cable is specified for installations not subject to mechanical damage, so mechanical protection is required where impact is likely.
        • Supplied manufacturer may vary — cable is sourced from several manufacturers that pass Australian Standards, so contact Sparky Direct before ordering if one specific manufacturer is needed.

        Where to use

        • Domestic lighting circuits — 1.5mm2 twin and earth is the standard size for residential lighting runs from the board out to each point.
        • Added points and small extensions — a 20 metre cut covers a single added light or switch drop without opening a full drum.
        • Switch and fitting relocations — renovation work moving a switch or light rarely needs more cable than the 15TE20 supplies.
        • Shed and garage lighting — short runs out to a detached structure where the cable is enclosed or otherwise protected.
        • Commercial fit-out lighting — rated for commercial installations as well as domestic, on lighting and light subcircuits.
        • Conduit and underground duct runs — specified for enclosure in conduit, direct burial and installation in underground ducts.
        • Service and maintenance vans — the 15TE20 gives a small carried quantity for callouts without holding drum stock.

        The 15TE20 is not suitable for installations subject to mechanical damage unless additional protection is provided. It is a fixed wiring cable, so it is not rated as a flexible cord for appliances, leads or portable equipment. Installation work must be carried out by a licensed electrician.

        Verified Sparky Direct customer reviews: Electra-Cables 15TE20 1.5mm Twin and Earth Flat Cable 20mtr Cut (15TE20)

        "Decent cable for electricians" — Robo

        "Great Product. Good price and just the amount I needed." — Josh

        "sparky was happy with this product" — Peter

        (15TE20)

        The conductors are plain annealed copper manufactured to AS/NZS 1125. Core insulation is PVC V90 and the outer sheath is 3V-90 easy-tear white. The cable is rated 450/750V for fixed wiring in domestic, commercial and industrial installations.

        Fixed wiring must be installed by a licensed electrician. Twin and earth cable forms part of the permanent installation, so it falls outside anything a home owner can legally wire. A licensed electrician also confirms the cable size suits the circuit load and installation method.

        1.5mm2 twin and earth is the common size for domestic and commercial lighting circuits, running from the switchboard to switches and light points. It also suits light power subcircuits where a licensed electrician has confirmed the size against the load and the installation method.

        The cable is specified for unenclosed runs, enclosure in conduit, direct burial and installation in underground ducts, provided the location is not subject to mechanical damage. A licensed electrician determines burial depth, mechanical protection and any warning tape required for the site.

        Normal operating temperature is 75 degrees C and the voltage rating is 450/750V. The PVC V90 insulation and 3V-90 sheath carry those ratings across all three cores: red active, black neutral and green/yellow earth.

        Do not use it in locations subject to mechanical damage without additional protection. It is a fixed wiring cable, not a flexible cord, so it is not suitable for appliance leads, extension leads or portable equipment. Sizing outside lighting and light subcircuit duty needs a licensed electrician's calculation.

        Warranty runs for 1 year for domestic use and 1 year for commercial use, starting from the invoice date. The warranty method is return to Sparky Direct. Warranty is void if the product is not installed by a licensed electrician.

        Cable is sourced from several manufacturers whose product passes Australian Standards, and the manufacturer supplied can change with buying conditions. Every cut meets the same published specification. Contact Sparky Direct before ordering if a job specification requires one particular manufacturer.
