FAQs

What is the main application for this brown single core cable?

This cable is suitable for general-purpose low voltage applications in automotive and marine environments, such as side and tail lights, indicators, and other low-current accessories.

What is the maximum temperature this cable can withstand?

The cable is designed to withstand temperatures up to 70°C.

What does '9/0.30' refer to in the specifications?

This refers to the construction of the conductor: 9 strands of 0.30mm diameter copper wire.

Can this cable be used for high-power circuits?

No, this cable has a maximum current rating of 5.75 amps and a conductor area of 0.65mm², making it unsuitable for high-power applications.

Does Connect offer this cable in other colors?

Yes, Connect offers this 9/030 single core auto cable in a range of colors including black, blue, green, red, yellow, and white.

What standards does this cable comply with?

It meets current and relevant European and British standards, including ISO6722:2006 Class B.

How is the cable supplied?

The cable is supplied on a convenient plastic mini reel.

Troubleshooting

Cable not conducting power

Check all connections at both ends for security and proper contact. Ensure the conductor is fully inserted into the terminal. Verify the current draw of the connected device does not exceed the cable's 5.75 amp rating.

Insulation damage during installation

Use caution when stripping insulation. Employ sharp, clean stripping tools designed for the correct wire gauge. If minor damage occurs, consider using heat shrink tubing for added protection if the conductor is not compromised.

Overheating during use

Immediately disconnect power. This indicates the current draw is exceeding the cable's capacity. Re-evaluate the circuit and consider using a cable with a larger conductor area or a lower-power device.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Meets relevant European and British standards (ISO6722:2006 Class B).
  • Durable PVC insulation and stranded copper conductors.
  • Suitable for temperatures up to 70°C.
  • Compact mini reel for easy handling and storage.
  • Available in multiple colors for organized wiring.

Cons

  • Limited current rating of 5.75 amps, not suitable for high-power circuits.
  • Single core cable, may not be suitable for all applications requiring stranded or shielded cables.
  • 7m length may be insufficient for larger projects.
  • General purpose cable, not specialized for extreme conditions.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

This single core cable is designed for straightforward connection in automotive and marine electrical systems. Ensure the cable is cut to the required length using appropriate wire cutters. The ends should be stripped carefully to expose the stranded copper conductors, taking care not to nick the wires. Connect the exposed conductor to the appropriate terminal or connector for your application, ensuring a secure crimp or solder joint.

Compatibility:

This cable is compatible with most standard automotive and marine low voltage electrical systems. It is rated for up to 70°C and designed for use with circuits drawing up to 5.75 amps. It is suitable for use with connectors and terminals designed for 0.65mm² conductor area wire. Always ensure compatibility with the specific requirements of your vehicle or vessel's electrical system.

Care:

To maintain performance and longevity, protect the cable from excessive mechanical stress, sharp edges, and prolonged exposure to fluids or chemicals not listed as compatible. Regularly inspect visible sections of the cable for any signs of damage, such as cuts, abrasions, or cracking of the insulation. Store the mini reel in a dry environment to prevent corrosion of the copper conductors before installation.
