What is the difference between 3 core and 2 core electrical wiring? Electrical wiring can come in 3core or 2core. This refers to the number of separate copper wires within the flex itself. These cores are covered in a coloured PVC insulation so they can be identified. Generally, three core electrical wiring is used for more pendant lighting. This has a live core, a neutral core and an earth core all wrapped in an additional insulating sheath. Two core flex does not have the earth core and is used in appliances that don’t need one. Most of our colours come in both three core and two core. Our metal covered cable is only in 3 core. The production of our fabric cable is made in a family owned mill in Italy. Here is where the fabric cover is woven and threaded into the most beautiful cable in the world. We aren’t called Creative Cables for nothing! An infinite number of styles can be woven to match your wildest imagination. If you have a particular cable you want for your brand, we can even help you design and manufacture it with us! We exclusively stock a design range called Vertigo. These designs and unique manufacturing process can only be found at Creative Cables.
Our fabric cable can be made with numerous different materials to create a different look. Rayon is the classic covering for a lot of our cables with a slightly shiny smooth surface in many bright colours such as violet, turquoise, pink, burgundy, lime green, silver and gold. Cotton is a newer addition which embraces a vintage style look. With a softness and ever so slight ‘fuzz’ it can be ideal for rewiring old-world lamps. Because of its ability to achieve a more natural look it’s becoming a design favourite with architects and interior designers. Colours in this range include soft white, ocean blue, stone grey, pale yellow and milk & mint. Jute uses a different manufacturing process to maintain its natural roughness. This is really popular for eco style design paired with fitting made of wood and lampshades in rattan and natural fibres. Cotton with Linen creates a similar natural effect. The cotton softens the coarseness of the linen to create a blend in complete uniqueness. Choose from pale blues, ancient pinks, thyme green and bark in soft stripes and zig zags. Similarly add Glitter to the mix and you have a completely different look with an additional brightness and smoother look. Glitter on its own is incredible! Add this to a luxury pendant and you’ll be taking your pendant lighting to next level in luxe! Did you know we stock a fabric cable called Unicorn? It’s holographic green and pink blend is sure to capture the heart of any 5year old. Metal is a new and exciting material to use in electrical flex. We have two styles. The first with a full covering in colours of copper, tin and brass. The second is a criss-cross weave creating a texture and a blend of different colours can be used. But the materials aren’t the only that sets us apart from the other fabric cables on the Australian market. Our patterns create incredibly inspiring cables to suit your branding. Zig zag, pixel, striped and bi-coloured houndstooth. The colour range is huge and includes colours like brown, dark blue, lilac, white, baby pink, red, orange, mustard, yellow, green, silver, grey, gold, neon, copper and salmon. With weaving a few colours together different effects can be achieved. The RT Rayon range gives a 3D effect. The RX Rayon cables have many coloured blended in a zigzag motion to crate the effect of pixilation. This includes a cable called Lollipop which had a blend of all your favourite bubble gum colours! Our RT range is made of two different rayon colours woven together to produce an effect like 3D.
In addition to rounded electrical wiring we also have a really large range of twisted cable. This is when the cores are individually wrapped in fabric and then twisted together. This is wonderful for vintage style lamps and period homes where you want to maintain the historic essence. However, this twisted range also comes in bright colours of orange, neon yellow, and green which will add a colour twist to any interior! Weave together three different colours and you have a completely different look that looks both high end and old worldly. Have a look at fabric cables named Orleans and Raminov! Choose twisted cable in additional materials of jute and cotton. The twisted range extends to include rope cable. A huge design trend at the moment the rope cable used in nautical theme, Hampton’s style interiors and costal home décor. In multiple sizes from XL to XXXL this cable is sure to impress.
