Hello,

I'm after a 3 to 3.5 metre 3-core C5 (clover leaf) pre-moulded cable (with UK plug!). Like this:



I can't seem to find anything more than 2 metres on-t'line.

Does anyone deal with cabling such as this or know where I can get it?

Thanks in advance,
Phil.

Make your own?

Buy one and chop/extend it?

Yeah - I had thought of that but it's a last resort as the cable will be visible, hence wanting the best compromise. Cheers.

I needed two lots of 50 metere cabling once, so I made my own. An electrical wholesaler should be able to supply the cable, plugs and fuse.

So your new electric car gets you to the corner shop at least.
