ASL single cables are among the best and quality cables in East and Central Africa.When installed in an earthed metal enclosure, these cables are suitable for voltages up to 1000V a.c. or up to 750V to earth d.c. These cables are intended for drawing into trunking and conduit. They may also be used inside fixed, protected installations such as lighting fittings, appliances, switchgear and control gear. The current rating of this cable is 7.9A to 15.9A and the voltage drop is 29mV/A/m. It is usually connected with a 8A miniature circuit breaker. They come in different colours ranging from black, red and green/yellow. Depending on your preference and ISO standards, red cable usually carries the phase(live wire), black is usually the neutral wire or simply return and green/yellow is usually the earth wire or ground wire. The earth/ground wire ensures that you are protected against leakage current and also ensures that your circuit's charges are at zero potential in reference to ground.
