What's the difference between 1.5mm and 2.5mm Twin and Earth?

Both are used for lighting, socket and cooker wiring; the correct size depends on the circuit's load and design current, so follow the relevant wiring regulations for your installation.

Is the Cat5e cable in this range suitable for outdoor camera runs?

Yes — the Cat5e listed here is an external-rated UTP cable with solid copper conductors, intended for outdoor use rather than internal patching.

Can I run several cameras off one power supply using these splitters?

Yes, the DC splitters are available in 2-way, 4-way and 5-way versions, each converting one female 12V input into multiple male outputs for camera feeds.

Wire & Cable

This range covers the core cabling needed on a CCTV or general electrical install: mains-rated Twin and Earth, structured network cable, coax for analogue/HD-CVI systems, and DC power accessories for splitting camera feeds.

Twin and Earth (T&E) — 1.5mm² (6242Y/CMK) and 2.5mm² grades for lighting, socket and cooker circuits.
Network cable — Cat5e and Cat6a options, including outdoor-rated Cat5e UTP (solid copper, external) and pre-terminated Cat6a S/FTP patch leads.
Coax — RG59U Siamese cable for combined video and power runs on analogue-style systems.
Control cable — shielded multicore (e.g. Belden 73003WS) for signal/control wiring.
DC power splitters — 2-way, 4-way and 5-way 1-female-to-multiple-male leads for feeding several 12V cameras from one PSU output.

How to choose

Circuit type: use T&E for fixed mains wiring, not for data or camera power runs.
Environment: pick outdoor-rated Cat5e for external camera runs; keep patch cable indoors.
Network standard: Cat6a suits higher-bandwidth or longer structured runs than Cat5e.
Camera power: DC splitters let one PSU output feed multiple 12V cameras — match splitter count to the number of cameras.
