I have been offered some twin and earth cable at a good price. I haven't jumped at it as I want to make sure it's genuine first.

The brand is Ozler. It is 6242yh which is the British standard. Has anyone used or heard of Ozler before?

At £14 for a roll of 100m 1mm twin and earth I've just got a few alarm bells!
 
10+ Years ago. When I was an apprentice, one of the boys in my class was on a job. There was a load of cheap Turkish cable bought. (However, I don't know the brand, Ozler could be decent)

There was dozens of rolls installed and then they had to be ripped out because the cross sectional area was not consistent throughout the cabl

Proceed with caution


Edit:

Millions of metres of dangerous cable 'in homes across UK' - https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-41391343

It was Atlas Kablo which was used
I remember working briefly for a firm in the early noughties that was using "cheap turkish dogs hit cable" according to the guys that worked there. Probably all came out the same factory!

I'm sure these companies are set up to knowingly sell second rate goods knowing that the regulation is many years behind the curve so when they eventually catch up the scoundrels abandon ships having made all the $$$$

Trouble is people up there be too stuck up to speak to the guys on the ground who know whats happenin.
