All Lengths SWA Steel Wire Armoured 2.5mm 3 Core Cable Outdoor Cable 6943X (5m)

Q: Do i need anything else for underground burial

You may want to consider laying this in conduit, this is not necessary for the functioning of the cable but I have often needed to add another run later or to replace a run. If you lay in conduit this is much easier to accomplish. 25mm waste pipe works well for me, strong enough and inexpensive.

Q: Is this suitable for 240 volts and if so what maximum amps please? Thanks.

Hi, Yes this cable is suitable for 240V. Maximum amps all depends on the length of cable you require etc.

Q: Can you please tell me what size gland i need for this

The gland size relates to the cable size. So SWA 15 would fit 15mm cable, SWA 20 would fit 20mm. You need to know the cable diameter and whether it’s for indoor or outdoor use. Shen you pick the gland type it also tells you shat cable it will fit.

Q: What size cleats for this cable

I took a small sample of the cable into my local electric store and they sorted me out

Heavy grade cable

Super secure armoured cabling for outside. Item takes some manipulating to connect, once in gives a secure fit. Excellent value for money for the 5m I needed.
