Why Choose the Partex ECHS2127EARTH(GRN/YEL) 2:1 Green/Yellow Heat Shrink Tubing?
The Partex ECHS2127EARTH(GRN/YEL) is a practical and reliable green/yellow heat shrink tubing designed for protective earth conductor identification, electrical insulation and cable protection in industrial and commercial electrical installations. Featuring a 2:1 shrink ratio and nominal diameters of 12.7 mm before shrinking and 6.3 mm after shrinking, this tubing provides a convenient solution for identifying and protecting suitable earthing conductors and electrical connections.
As part of the Partex ECHS heat shrink tubing range, the ECHS2127EARTH(GRN/YEL) contracts when heat is applied, forming a close-fitting protective sleeve around compatible conductors and cable components. Its distinctive green/yellow colour combination is intended for protective earth identification, helping electricians, control panel builders and maintenance engineers distinguish protective conductors from other wiring within electrical systems.
Supplied in a convenient 50 m pack, the ECHS2127EARTH(GRN/YEL) is particularly suitable for electrical contractors, industrial panel builders and OEM equipment manufacturers requiring consistent earth conductor identification. Its 12.7 mm supplied diameter and 6.3 mm recovered diameter make it suitable for a range of compatible conductor sizes and electrical wiring assemblies.

Reliable Protective Earth Identification for Industrial Electrical Systems
Protective earth conductors play an important role in electrical safety by providing a connection between exposed conductive parts and the protective earthing system. Clear identification of these conductors helps electricians and maintenance engineers recognise protective connections during installation, inspection and servicing. Green/yellow sleeving is used for this purpose in accordance with applicable electrical identification requirements.
The Partex ECHS2127EARTH(GRN/YEL) combines a practical 2:1 shrink ratio with distinctive green/yellow colouring, making it suitable for identifying protective earth conductors within industrial control cabinets, electrical distribution equipment and machinery wiring systems. When heated evenly, the tubing contracts around the conductor or compatible component to provide a close-fitting identification sleeve with additional protection against abrasion and handling.
For electrical contractors, automation engineers and control panel manufacturers, the 50 m pack provides a convenient supply for repeated protective earth identification tasks. The tubing can be cut into shorter sections to suit individual conductors and terminations. The correct size should be selected to ensure adequate clearance before shrinking and a suitable recovered diameter, while the finished installation must comply with applicable electrical wiring and protective conductor identification standards.
Typical Applications
- Protective earth conductor identification in electrical installations.
- Green/yellow sleeving for compatible earthing conductors and terminations.
- Industrial control panel and switchgear wiring.
- Electrical distribution boards and protective earthing systems.
- Industrial machinery and automation equipment wiring.
- Identification of protective bonding conductors where applicable.
- Electrical maintenance, servicing and wiring refurbishment.
- OEM equipment manufacturing and industrial electrical panel building.
