Maypole 2 Core Cable – 2 x 9/0.3mm – 30m (316)

Description

Genuine Maypole · Part no. 316

Maypole 316 is a 30m roll of twin flat cable with two 9/0.3mm cores, one red and one black, PVC insulated and suitable for 12V or 24V circuits. It is the light-duty twin: handy for low-current runs where you want the feed and the return laid side by side in one neat flat cable.

Good to know

• What loads is 9/0.3mm cable good for? In UK auto cable tables 9/0.30 is listed as 0.65mm2 and about 5.75A, so it suits small loads such as LED lamps, switch feeds, relay coils and sensors, not heaters, fans or compressors.
• How do I size it for my job? Choose a cable for the current its circuit draws, and go up a size on long runs so the voltage doesn't drop; the fuse protecting it should be rated at or below what the cable carries.
• Which core goes where? Use red for the positive feed and black for the earth or negative return, so anyone working on it later can follow the circuit.

Which one?

For more current, the Maypole 2 Core Cable – 2 x 14/0.3mm – 30m (313) is the same style of twin with thicker cores; for a trailer or towbar loom, the Maypole 7 Core Cable – 7 x 21/0.2mm – 30m (326).
