This cable did the job perfectly to run power to my freshly built summerhouse. 13a spur off the main ring, some cheeky glads and we are away

Good enough and does the job nicely

As you'd expect really. My only issue was that the cores are brown/black/grey and it did not say this on the details (despite it showing the actual cores in the pictures). Outer PVC easy enough to cut/strip. Armour was clean. Inner insulation cut & stripped cleanly. Overall the cable was flexible enough to bend and clip in place just where you need it.

Worked well

Used to provide an external supply to a garden building. It was relatively easy to insyall underground and to terminate using the Doncaster gland kit.

It looks to be of good quality

Unfortunately the wrong (2 core) cable supplied.. Discovered too late after builders had already buried under new driveway. Toolstation normally very good, but severely let down on this occasion.

Good Quality

Seems a good quality cable, easy to transport and use, my only gripe would be cables used to have caps on the cut ends to keep moisture out until connected.

Great cable at a great price. Bought the 25m cable to install garden socket. Cable is easy to work with and would recommend. Only observation would be that cable core colors are not British standard and are brown, black and grey

Armoured and Excellent!

Great cable, good price, easy to strip and terminate. Only a small niggle is that it’s very flexible meaning more cleats to give a straight look.

Ordering via the App and Collecting was very simple and quick . The cable itself is great however the cable Colours don’t Tally with UK spec, so you have to remember which you have used for L-N-E all in all great price, I needed 25m and it was perfect for adding an underground cable to a socket my garden shed
