Wholesale

Wholesalers & Distributors

The Electrical Wholesale and Distribution market works to support the wider electrical industry, supplying electricians and small-to-midsize electrical contractors with cables for their projects. It is fast-paced and demanding, with demand for products ranging across many applications and cable types.

Electrical Wholesalers and Distributors predominantly support their domestic markets, so require cables manufactured in accordance with local standards (country specific) in order to be compliant with national wiring regulations. This can also include relevant third-party quality marks such as VDE, KEMA and BASEC.

 

 

Buying cable products meeting relevant national, European and international cable standards is only one part of the supply chain for Electrical Wholesalers and Distributors. The customers that buy from them rely on the quality assurance and compliance choices made at point of procurement. With the testing regimen of The Cable Lab underpinning that commitment, it provides confidence in the cables being sold on.

Fast Pan-European Deliveries - Next Day Delivery from Stock

Holding vast amounts of stock isn't always feasible for Wholesalers, so having a cable supplier with distribution sites across Europe means fast access to the cables your customers need. We offer next-day delivery from stock to most destinations across the UK & Europe. 

Common Wholesaler Requirements:

Fixed Wiring Cables

Domestic and light industrial wiring installations are supported with what is broadly known as fixed wiring. Applications include pendant light drops and lighting switches, electrical sockets, and general low voltage building power. Predominantly supplied at 0.6/1kV, 450/750V, or 300/500V.

Many of the fixed wiring cables supplied are subject to harmonised standards, providing consistent nomenclature, construction and performance wherever in Europe they are used.

Communications & Networking

Local Area Networking (LAN) installations, coaxial cables, telephone cables and other communications and data cables are all frequently required for new builds and upgrades / retrofits alike. They form an integral part of any building or construction.

EV Chargepoint Installation Cables

The growing shift towards electric vehicles sees an increase in domestic installations (trickle charge, combining power with data monitoring as in the EV ProInstall Cable) and industrial / public chargepoints. A combination of Low and Medium Voltage cables are required to connect the charging points to the grid. Registered installers need a constant supply of cable, with speed of install and ease of termination a key consideration.

Solar & Energy Storage Installations

With solar panels installed on the rooftops of industrial buildings and domestic homes, renewable energy installations are increasingly commercially viable for all. When coupled with battery storage, it can provide a practical solution to power demands. From the PV Solar Cables that connect the panels, to inverters and batteries - our cables suit these smaller scale installations just as easily as the largescale grid projects.
