40/.0076 or 1 mm 2-core flexible CU/PVC/PVC electric cable is rated at 300/500 V and is compliant with BS 6004 and BS EN 50525 standards. It is ideal for a wide range of electrical applications, ensuring reliability and performance.


40/.0076 or 1 mm 3-core flexible CU/PVC/PVC electric cable is rated at 300/500 V and is compliant with BS 6004 and BS EN 50525 standards. It is ideal for a wide range of electrical applications, ensuring reliability and performance.


They are not not safe. They were built in the 1970's so if you still operate 19870's appliances or do not use much electrical appliances, you are still safe. If you been to those elderly HDB flat which are sparsely furnished and they just have a small fan, fridge and tv. They wouldn't have any electrical problems.


But if you are going for modern day aircon, water heater, induction cooker, oven, bitcoin mining rig, big screen tv, washing machine, etc.... Then those electrical breakers will not be able to handle the load.


3) check the power cable connected to the heater. Some contractors are just ignorant. They might use 40/0076 cable, which can only support 10A of current. 70/0076 cable can support 15A. I am kiasi. So I change the cable installed by my contractor to 110/0076 cable or 2.5mm2 cable, which can support up to 20A.


Good to invest in a mutlimeter with NCV function. If you are unsure if your working location is still LIVE after swtiching off the swtich, can just bring your NCV multimeter near to wires. It will flash and beep if LIVE wire is detected.


Good stuff. If can have hands-on installing this distribution box, will have good understanding of the electrical supply routing from external to the various consumer loads in the home. And the various safety devices.


Two core flex cables are utilized to connect small appliances that are double insulated and do not require an earth connection. These cables consist of two cores, namely the live and neutral cores. Being a flexible cable, it is circular in shape and has an outer sheath. The cores are insulated with PVC and color-coded for easy identification and proper wiring.


What is the general problem with using a power strip, you can use it on various things, but not on washing machine as it seems to me. Is it because of around 2.5 kilowat potential max (which you barely ever hit it unless you wash on 90 celsius) power which is most of the time higher than any other appliance. From this asumpstion then you should not use water heaters, microwaves and vaccuum cleaners too? Or is it because it is the extended period of use that tha can heat up the cable and cause fire hazards? In this case can't I just get a thicker cable?


What cables types are there, what thickness should I get what is the biggest con of using one, do I need to have a surge protection on a cable like this, what are your recommendations (link me amazon if needed).


The recommendation not to use a extension cord is to prevent issues that most people cannot foresee. Like improper grounding and the rating of the cable. And pets eating the cable ;-) (thanks to replete, I didn't think of that one).


Most people think: if it fits, it's OK. Unfortunately it is not that simple so it is safer to just recommend against it and have people get an electrician to install an extra outlet. The electrician is aware of all the issues and should do a proper job.


I would worry about the water and humidity in the bathroom. That's probably the reason why you don't have an outlet in the bathroom in the first place. Having electrical appliances in the bathroom is risky because they might cause electric shocks and they might malfunction because of the humidity.


If you don't have another option for installing your washing machine, I think you should call an electrician to install an outlet, preferably one for outdoor use or waterproof. A professional will use the proper cable, so you don't have to deal with it.


If that is not an option either, then get the shortest cable that does the job (to minimize voltage drops on the cable), make sure that the power rating of the cable is equal to (or exceeds) the maximum power rating of the washing machine and get one that has a single outlet at the end, so there is less chance of humidity getting in. I would also keep it somewhere above the floor, so no water reaches it in case the floor is flooded.
