Our H07V-U/R/K singles 6mm² and 10mm² meter tails are used for consumer unit connections, alongside our 1.5mm² and 2.5mm² branch circuit cables.

Cable size depends on the circuit type and load. The most common sizes range from 1.5mm² for lighting up to 10mm² for the main power supply.

1.5mm² cable is the standard choice for lighting circuits and home automation systems.

2.5mm² cable is used for general-purpose sockets, including those in bathrooms and kitchens.

High-load appliances like washing machines, dishwashers, and electric boilers require 4mm² cable.

These high-demand appliances require 6mm² cable, which also covers electric heating systems.

The main supply cable feeding the whole property is typically 10mm², handling the total power demand of the home.
