Unicrimp has expanded its comprehensive range of Q-Crimp cable management accessories with the launch of pink PVC sleeving.

Cable sleeving is used to insulate and protect wiring, keeping it safe from abrasion and temperature damages, to name a couple of functions. Unicrimp’s new pink PVC sleeving is designed for use in applications where ‘functional’ and ‘protective’ earthing need to be distinctive – a crucial element in order to comply with BS7671 regulations. The standard BS7671:2018+A2 identifies that functional earthing conductors must be identifiable to avoid confusion with other earthing systems. Specifically, it specifies that functional earth conductors should be marked with pink sleeving.

The pink-coloured sleeving should be applied to the conductor’s insulation, making it visibly distinctive from other conductors within the system. This is particularly important in complex systems that incorporate multiple types of earthing, as it helps electricians and engineers quickly identify and correctly handle the functional earth conductors, ensuring safety and efficiency in the installation process.

The new sleeving is available in three sizes – 100M X 2MM, 100M X 3MM and 100M X 4MM.

Unicrimp offers a full range of colour coded PVC sleeving and heat shrink options, including black, grey, brown, blue, and mixed reels.
