Tycab 2mm 5 Core Marine Cable White Sheath runs five separate circuits through one length of gear, each with a 2 mm conductor rated at 6 Amp. You can hook up lights, pumps and instruments across a 12 Volt or 24 Volt setup without dragging a bundle of singles through a 15 mm conduit. Sold per metre, it keeps your wiring runs tidy and your leftover pile under control on the trailer or at the marina. Each core is made from 16 strands of 0.2 mm conductor so the cable bends cleanly around a 40 mm radius without stressing the cores. The white sheath holds up well when routed along lockers and bulkheads over 30 m runs in typical Aussie heat. You get marine cable that’s built tough enough for boats from the river to the coast and still a smart buy for small electrical upgrades.

Q: Can this cable be used for both 12V and 24V systems?

Yes, this cable suits low-voltage 12V and 24V marine systems. The 2mm cores and 6 Amp rating match many common accessory loads in either voltage. Most small pumps, lights and electronics sit well under this current limit. Always match each circuit to the correct fuse size. An auto electrician can confirm suitability for your specific setup.

Q: Is the price per metre or for a full roll?

The cable is sold per metre. You can order exactly the length you need instead of taking a whole 30m roll. This helps cut down on leftover offcuts in smaller projects. If you need a longer continuous run, just order the total metres in one line. The crew will supply it as a single uncut length where possible.

Q: How flexible is the 2mm 5 core marine cable?

The cable is quite flexible thanks to its fine strands. Each core uses 16 strands at 0.2mm, which allows tighter bends than a solid conductor of the same size. That helps when you are routing around corners or through narrow conduits. Support the cable at sensible intervals to avoid sharp kinks. Avoid pulling it around edges tighter than a gentle curve.

Q: Can I run the full 6 Amp rating on all five cores at once?

Each core is rated to 6 Amp individually, but total load still matters. Running every core near 6 Amp increases overall heat in the bundle. In most small boats the loads are staggered across lighting and accessories. Keep runs as short as practical and follow standard marine wiring practices. If in doubt, get an electrician to check your current and voltage drop calculations.
