Product description

Braided textile cable 3x1.5 – copper, flexible, white, for retro / vintage installation

Braided cable, covered with fabric, designed for retro and vintage-style electrical installations, where wires remain visible and become part of the interior. This is a 3x1.5 mm² copper, flexible, multi-strand cable with PVC and textile sheathing, suitable for use in lighting, switch, electrical socket, and decorative surface-mounted installation solutions.

Main idea:
This white braided textile cable is designed for visible retro-style electrical wiring, where both functionality and an aesthetic look are important. The 3-core construction allows the cable to be used in 230 V circuits where phase, neutral, and protective earth conductors are required.

Cross-section
3x1.5 mm²

Conductor
Copper, multi-strand

Sheathing
PVC + textile

Color
White

Operating principle

Braided textile cable is used to transmit electricity in 230 V electrical circuits. Inside the cable, there are three copper conductors that can be used for phase, neutral, and protective earth, depending on the specific electrical wiring diagram.

The multi-strand copper conductor gives the cable flexibility, making it more convenient to install in surface-mounted wiring, around insulators, retro-style switches, sockets, or lighting connection points. The textile sheathing provides a decorative vintage look, while the PVC layer serves as an insulating function.

What are the benefits of braided textile cable?
Braided cable is used when the electrical installation needs to be visible and aesthetically harmonized with the interior. It is suitable for retro, vintage, classic, loft, or farmhouse-style rooms where wires are routed on the surface and combined with ceramic insulators, surface-mounted switches, sockets, and junction boxes.

Technical parameters

Product type	Braided textile cable
Cable type	Flexible, braided, fabric-covered

Number of cores	3
Conductor	Multi-strand, copper
Rated voltage	230 V
Sheathing	PVC + textile
Insulation / sheathing color	White
Style	Retro / vintage
Purpose	Retro and surface-mounted electrical installation
Compatible with	Electrical sockets, switches, light fixtures, ceramic insulators, and retro junction boxes

Where is it used?

Retro-style electrical installations – when wires are visible and become part of the interior.
In farmhouses and wooden homes – for open surface-mounted wiring with insulators, switches, and sockets.
In residential premises – for decorative lighting and electrical connection solutions.
In lighting connection – when a flexible white textile cable matching the interior is required.
In socket and switch installation – when wires are routed on the surface and an aesthetic retro look is required.

Practical installation example

For example, the white braided cable is mounted on a wooden wall in a farmhouse or a retro-style room. The cable can be routed through ceramic insulators to a surface-mounted switch, socket, junction box, or light fixture connection point.

The 3x1.5 mm² construction allows the cable to be used for standard 230 V circuits where three conductors are needed: phase, neutral, and protective earth. The final application must always be verified according to the specific electrical diagram and load.

Pros

Retro / vintage design – the cable becomes a visible interior detail.
3x1.5 mm² construction – suitable for many standard 230 V lighting and electrical installation solutions.
Multi-strand copper conductor – more flexible and convenient for installation.
White textile sheathing – matches light-colored walls, white retro switches, and ceramic elements.
Suitable for surface-mounted installation – can be used with ceramic insulators and surface accessories.
Usable for sockets and switches – a suitable retro installation component based on the chosen diagram.
Flexible cable type – more convenient when routing through visible installation points.

Cons / limitations

Proper load selection is required – the cable cross-section must match the current, circuit breaker, and purpose of the circuit.
Textile sheathing requires care – avoid mechanical damage, friction, and improper fastening.
Not intended for all environments – for damp or outdoor locations, verify the cable's suitability according to manufacturer data.
Visible installation must be done neatly – messy installation ruins the retro aesthetic and may be unsafe.
Installation must be performed by a professional – cable connection must comply with electrical safety requirements.

Safety and installation notes

Braided textile cable is an electrical installation component; therefore, before installation, it is necessary to assess the load, circuit breaker, cable route, installation environment, and specific electrical diagram.

Installation must be performed by a qualified electrician in compliance with applicable electrical safety regulations.
Disconnect electrical power before starting work and verify that there is no voltage in the circuit.
Cable cross-section must match the load – the 3x1.5 mm² cable should only be used where it is suitable based on current and circuit breaker.
Protect textile sheathing from damage – do not install where the cable will be constantly rubbed, compressed, or mechanically damaged.
For damp or outdoor locations, verify if the specific cable is adapted for such use according to manufacturer data.
