Automotive installation cable bqcable.com FLRY15BN100B 1.5 mm² brown, 100 m spool

bqcable.com FLRY15BN100B is a 1.5 mm² automotive installation cable supplied on a 100 m spool in brown. Intended for vehicle wiring and low-voltage electrical installations, this continuous-length cable offers a standard conductor cross-section for lighting circuits, sensors, switches and accessory connections. Supplied on a spool, the cable facilitates neat routing, easier cutting to length and reduced jointing compared with multiple short lengths.

Advantages

The 1.5 mm² conductor size balances current-carrying capacity and flexibility for typical automotive and accessory circuits. The single-colour insulated jacket simplifies identification of the run while the long 100 m spool reduces the need for frequent joins and keeps installations tidy. The cable is suitable for crimping or soldered terminations and can be routed through engine bays or interior panels when installed following appropriate protection and mounting practices.

Suitable for

• Automotive lighting circuits (interior and exterior low-current runs)
• Sensor and switch connections in vehicles
• Accessory installations such as audio, interior lights and small power accessories
• Workshops and DIY vehicle wiring projects where continuous lengths are preferred

When it may not be suitable

This cable is intended for low-voltage automotive and similar applications and is not designed for high-current primary battery feeds, starter motor circuits or heavy-duty power runs. For installations exposed to extreme mechanical abrasion, chemical immersion, or where specific automotive approvals are required, an alternative cable with reinforced jacketing or certified automotive ratings should be selected.

Key specifications

• Conductor cross-section: 1.5 mm²
• Length: 100 m spool
• Insulation colour: brown
• Intended voltage range: low-voltage automotive systems
• Application: vehicle wiring and low-voltage electrical installations

How to use

Measure and cut the required length from the spool, strip the insulation to expose the conductor and make terminations using appropriate crimp connectors or soldering methods. Route the cable along existing harness paths where possible, secure with clips or ties, and protect it from sharp edges, heat sources and moving parts. When passing through bulkheads or metal panels, use grommets or protective sleeves to prevent abrasion. Verify connections with a multimeter and test the circuit before finalizing the installation.

What to consider before purchase

• Confirm that 1.5 mm² conductor cross-section meets the current requirements of your intended circuit
• Ensure a brown insulated conductor is acceptable for your wiring colour-coding scheme
• Check environmental and mechanical protection needs for engine bay or exposed routing
• Plan connector types and accessories (grommets, heat-shrink, terminals) required for installation

Usage recommendations

Use this cable for low-current lighting, sensors and accessory circuits. Avoid using it for starter or high-current applications; secure and protect runs against abrasion and heat, and follow vehicle manufacturer wiring practices for routing and fusing.
