Twin and Earth Cable LSZH Flat TPS 2X2.5+E2.5mm² is a flat-type cable designed specifically for indoor electrical wiring, featuring safety, environmental friendliness, and practicality. It is widely used in lighting and power distribution systems of residential buildings, commercial buildings, and public facilities.​ The cable adopts a core structure of "two live wires and one earth wire": 2 phase wires (live wires) of 2.5mm² and 1 earth wire (E wire) of 2.5mm² are arranged in parallel, wrapped in an LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) insulating sheath, and the whole is flat (TPS design). This structure not only saves installation space, facilitating laying in narrow environments such as wall trunking and floor interlayers, but also reduces the risk of wiring misoperation through clear distinction of core functions (usually phase wires are brown/blue, and earth wire is yellow-green 双色).​ In terms of materials, the conductor is made of high-purity electrolytic copper, which has excellent conductivity, ensuring stable current transmission and reducing line loss; the insulation layer and sheath are made of LSZH materials, which have significant environmental advantages - in high temperature or combustion situations, they will not release toxic halogen gases and a large amount of smoke, which can effectively delay the spread of fire, gain time for personnel evacuation and equipment protection, and are especially suitable for places with strict fire safety requirements, such as hospitals, schools, high-rise buildings, etc. At the same time, LSZH materials have excellent aging resistance and UV resistance, and can adapt to long-term indoor dry or humid environments, with a service life of more than 15 years.​ As a flat TPS cable, its flexibility is better than traditional round cables, with a small bending radius, which can flexibly turn in complex wiring paths, reducing construction difficulty. In addition, the cable has passed strict mechanical performance tests, with strong tensile and wear resistance, and can withstand slight external impact during installation and use.​ In terms of electrical performance, the cable has a rated voltage of 450/750V, meeting the voltage requirements of household and small commercial equipment, with a continuous current-carrying capacity of up to 24A (at an ambient temperature of 30℃), suitable for air conditioners, refrigerators, washing machines and other common household appliances. The setting of the earth wire further strengthens safety protection, which can quickly conduct the leakage current of the equipment into the ground, avoiding electric shock accidents.​ The product is manufactured in strict accordance with international standards such as IEC 60228 and BS 6004, and has passed multiple tests such as insulation resistance, voltage resistance, and combustion performance to ensure the quality consistency of each meter of cable. Whether it is the circuit laying of new buildings or the upgrading of old lines, this cable can provide a reliable wiring solution for indoor electrical systems with its characteristics of safety, environmental protection, convenient installation and stable performance.

The family of flexible twin and earth electric wires—encompassing BV, BVR, BVV, BVVB, and RVV variants—represents a versatile, cost-effective solution for low-voltage (0.45/0.75kV) residential, commercial, and light industrial electrical systems. Characterized by low-copper-content PVC insulation (optimized for balance between conductivity and affordability), conductor cross-sections ranging from 1mm² to 10mm², and a sleek black finish, these wires are engineered to deliver reliable power transmission while prioritizing flexibility, safety, and easy installation. Designed around the "twin and earth" structure (two current-carrying conductors + one protective earth conductor), they comply with global standards such as IEC 60227 and GB/T 5023, making them suitable for applications from household wiring and appliance connections to office power distribution and small-scale industrial machinery. Core Variants: Design Differences and Functional Adaptability Each wire variant is tailored to specific installation needs, with structural distinctions that define their flexibility, durability, and use cases: 1. BV (Solid Copper Core, Single PVC Insulation) BV wires feature a single solid low-copper conductor (purity ≥99.5%, optimized for cost efficiency) with a thin black PVC insulation layer (0.6-1.0mm thickness). The solid core delivers stability for fixed, linear wiring (e.g., wall-mounted lighting circuits), with a minimum bending radius of 10× the wire’s outer diameter. Available in 1mm² (rated current 6A) to 10mm² (rated current 32A), BV wires excel in scenarios where rigidity simplifies threading through wall cavities or conduit. Their black insulation offers UV resistance (via 0.5% carbon black additive), making them suitable for covered outdoor applications like patio lighting. 2. BVR (Stranded Copper Core, Single PVC Insulation) BVR wires replace the solid core with stranded low-copper conductors (7-49 fine strands, depending on cross-section), enhancing flexibility for tight, curved routes (e.g., behind furniture or in narrow commercial spaces). The stranded design reduces conductor fatigue during repeated bending (up to 10,000 cycles at 6× the bending radius) and improves heat dissipation—critical for high-load circuits like office printer stations. Sizes range from 1.5mm² (rated current 10A) to 10mm² (rated current 35A), with the black PVC insulation maintaining the same flame-retardant properties (per IEC 60332-1) as BV variants. 3. BVV/BVVB (Sheathed Variants for Enhanced Protection) BVV (Solid Core, PVC Insulation + Outer Sheath): Adds a thick black PVC outer sheath (0.8-1.2mm) over the insulated conductors, boosting abrasion resistance for exposed wiring (e.g., under-office floors or industrial workbenches). The solid core ensures stable termination to sockets, with sizes from 2.5mm² (rated current 16A) to 10mm² (rated current 32A). BVVB (Flat Twin and Earth, PVC Sheath): Features a flat, compact design (two insulated conductors + one earth conductor embedded in a single black PVC sheath) ideal for narrow spaces like skirting boards or ceiling voids. The flat profile prevents rolling during installation, making it a top choice for residential renovation projects. Sizes start at 1.5mm² (rated current 10A) and extend to 6mm² (rated current 25A). 4. RVV (Flexible Stranded Core, Double PVC Sheath) RVV wires are the most flexible in the family, with highly stranded low-copper conductors (19-127 strands) and a double-layer black PVC sheath (inner insulation + outer protective layer). This design enables extreme flexibility (minimum bending radius 4× the outer diameter) for dynamic applications like portable appliances (e.g., vacuum cleaners, power tools) or temporary event wiring. Sizes range from 1mm² (rated current 5A) to 6mm² (rated current 20A), with the double sheath providing resistance to oil, water, and mild chemicals (per IEC 60811-2-3). Low-Copper PVC Insulation: Balance of Performance and Affordability The "low copper" designation refers to a optimized conductor composition (99.5% copper + 0.5% trace metals) that reduces material costs without compromising essential conductivity. This design delivers a conductivity of ≥50MS/m at 20°C—sufficient for low-voltage applications—while lowering upfront costs by 15-20% compared to high-purity copper wires. The black PVC insulation further enhances value by integrating multiple functional additives: Flame Retardants (30% calcium carbonate + antimony trioxide): Ensures self-extinguishing within 60 seconds (per IEC 60332-1), minimizing fire risks in enclosed spaces like apartments or offices. UV Stabilizers (0.5% carbon black): Prevents insulation degradation from sunlight exposure, extending service life to 10-15 years for covered outdoor use. Plasticizers (5% DINP): Maintains flexibility at temperatures as low as -15°C, avoiding brittleness in cold environments (e.g., unheated garages). Cross-Section Sizes: Matching Loads to Applications The 1mm²-10mm² size range is carefully calibrated to cover diverse low-voltage loads: 1mm²-1.5mm²: Ideal for low-current applications like household lighting (1mm²: 6A, 1.5mm²: 10A) or small appliances (e.g., phone chargers, desk lamps). BVR and RVV variants in these sizes are popular for DIY projects due to their flexibility. 2.5mm²-4mm²: The workhorse size for power sockets (2.5mm²: 16A) and medium-load appliances (e.g., refrigerators, microwaves, 4mm²: 25A). BVVB’s flat design is widely used in residential kitchen and living room wiring. 6mm²-10mm²: Reserved for high-load scenarios like electric water heaters (6mm²: 25A) or small industrial machinery (10mm²: 32A). BV and BVV variants in these sizes are preferred for fixed, heavy-duty circuits due to their solid core stability.
