The Centurion Earth Sleeve (EL163-2P) is an essential safety component for professional electricians and DIY enthusiasts working on domestic or commercial electrical installations. It provides reliable insulation and clear identification for bare copper earth wires up to 1.5mm², ensuring compliance with wiring standards; however, users should note it is specifically sized for smaller gauge conductors and will not fit larger primary supply cables.

This product is primarily designed for standard indoor electrical installations. For external use, ensure it is contained within a suitable IP-rated enclosure.
The sleeve is designed to fit conductors up to 1.5mm².
It is self-extinguishing within 30 seconds, but it is not intended for use in high-heat environments or as a thermal insulator.
Each pack contains a single 2-meter length of sleeving.
Yes, its self-extinguishing properties and insulation resistance make it suitable for standard identification and protection of earth conductors.
Ensure the wire gauge is indeed 1.5mm² or smaller; for stranded wire, twist the strands tightly before sliding the sleeve on.
Ensure you have left enough slack in the wire loop or use a small cable tie to secure the sleeve if necessary, though it is designed for a friction fit.
To install, measure the required length of the bare earth wire that needs covering and cut the sleeve using a sharp utility knife or electrical shears. Slide the sleeve over the conductor until it reaches the terminal entry point. Ensure the sleeve does not interfere with the mechanical connection at the terminal screw. This product is intended for indoor use within standard wiring environments. Keep stored in a cool, dry place to prevent premature material degradation, and avoid exposing the PVC to extreme chemical solvents or high-heat environments exceeding its temperature rating.
