White Cable

Former Community Member

I'm working on the design for the extension of a school and the electrical contractor says that the existing building supply is the only original cable in use and has a white core that dates it pre 1967.

Any ideas of what a white core cable is (other than MICC)?

  • You might find someone happy to inspect it and decide if it suitable or not, it will depend on the cost of the new one if it is worth it. 

    You do not mention amps or distance, but the ‘just replace it’ mentality often evaporates with larger numbers… (and the cable in the street probably pre-dates all of it and will still be in use 50 years from now)
