Copper single-core flexible electrical cable LP H07V-K 1x2.5 mm² red

LP H07V-K single-core flexible electrical cable, conductor size 1x2.5 mm² in red, is intended for internal fixed wiring and connections where a flexible single conductor is required. The cable features a stranded copper conductor for improved flexibility and a PVC insulating sheath that provides mechanical protection and electrical insulation suitable for general-purpose power distribution, lighting circuits and appliance connections in residential and commercial installations.

Advantages

This copper single-core cable offers reliable conductivity and enhanced flexibility due to its fine-stranded copper conductor, making it easier to route and terminate in confined spaces and terminal blocks. The PVC insulation provides sufficient dielectric strength for standard indoor applications and resists abrasion and normal mechanical stress. The red color of the insulation simplifies circuit identification during installation and maintenance, supporting safer wiring practices and clearer phase or live conductor marking.

Suitable for

• Fixed internal wiring in buildings
• Lighting circuits and switches
• Connection of household and commercial appliances
• Terminal blocks, junction boxes and distribution boards

Key specifications

• Conductor material: copper, fine-stranded for flexibility
• Conductor cross-section: 2.5 mm² (single core)
• Insulation material: PVC
• Color: red
• Application environment: indoor, fixed installations
• Typical use: power distribution and lighting circuits

How to use

Strip the PVC insulation carefully to expose the copper strands, taking care not to damage the conductor. Use appropriate crimp terminals or insulated connectors for secure terminations and ensure screw terminals clamp the conductor without cutting strands. Route the cable through conduits, ducts or cable trays as required by local regulations, and secure at regular intervals to prevent strain. Verify compatibility with the circuit's rated voltage and protective devices before connecting, and follow local wiring codes and safety standards during installation.

Usage recommendations

For long-term reliability, avoid excessive bending radii and repeated flexing; maintain recommended bending radius for stranded conductors. Use the red conductor for phase or live identification according to your local wiring color conventions, and pair with appropriate protective devices sized for 2.5 mm² copper conductors. For environments with chemical exposure, extreme temperatures, or outdoor use, select a cable with specifications suited to those conditions.
