Good quality cable
I brought this cable recently it stripped and cut well. It came in a suitable length and meant I didn’t have to spend more buying a complete reel.

Multi core cable
Bought this to put sockets in 4m x 3m summer house, enough length to put 3 double socket in and attach to outside connection, good value for money

Easily damaged
The outer casing seems quite soft on this wire. I wrote off a 10metre reel when pulling it through trunking because it pulled against a protruding screw head and this took slices out of the outer covering. As it also scraped the inner wire casings I threw it away for safety.

It's wire
It's wire, it does what wire does, sits there unobtrusively carrying witchcraft around your home. It can be found cheaper elsewhere for the exact same product, but B&Q's opening hours proved more convenient.

It's 2.5mm twin and earth cable
Not a lot you can say about cable. It carries electricity!!!!
