Why Choose the Partex HS232EARTH(GRN/YEL) 2:1 Green/Yellow Heat Shrink Tubing?
The Partex HS232EARTH(GRN/YEL) is a professional green/yellow heat shrink tubing designed for electrical insulation, protective conductor identification and cable protection in industrial and commercial electrical installations. Featuring a 2:1 shrink ratio, the tubing reduces from a nominal internal diameter of 3.2 mm to 1.6 mm when fully recovered, providing a close-fitting sleeve around appropriately sized conductors and electrical connections.
Manufactured by Partex, a recognised specialist in cable identification and electrical installation products, this heat shrink tubing features the distinctive green/yellow colour combination commonly used to identify protective earth (PE) conductors. Its colour coding helps electricians, control panel builders and maintenance engineers distinguish protective earthing connections from other wiring within electrical equipment and distribution systems.
Supplied in a convenient 150 m pack, the HS232EARTH(GRN/YEL) is suitable for professional electrical installations, control panel manufacturing and industrial maintenance applications requiring consistent protective earth identification. Its compact 3.2 mm supplied diameter makes it particularly useful for smaller conductors, cable terminations and protective earth connections.

Reliable Protective Earth Identification and Cable Protection
Protective earth conductor identification is an important part of electrical installation safety and maintenance. The Partex HS232EARTH(GRN/YEL) uses the recognised green/yellow identification colour combination to help distinguish protective earthing conductors from live and neutral conductors in electrical systems.
The tubing's 2:1 shrink ratio allows it to contract around appropriately sized wires and connections when suitable heat is applied. This creates a neat, close-fitting sleeve that helps protect the underlying conductor insulation against minor abrasion while providing a clearly visible identification finish.
Green/yellow sleeving is particularly useful when identifying protective earth conductors at terminals, connection points and within electrical enclosures. The tubing provides a permanent-style colour identification sleeve when correctly selected and installed, although the complete electrical installation must still meet applicable wiring regulations and protective earthing requirements.
For effective installation, select tubing with a supplied internal diameter large enough to pass over the intended conductor or termination and a recovered diameter suitable for the required fit. Cut the tubing to length and apply controlled, even heat using an appropriate heat gun, following the manufacturer's installation recommendations.
Typical Applications
- Protective earth (PE) conductor identification.

- Electrical distribution boards and equipment enclosures.
- Industrial automation and machine control systems.
- Electrical cable termination identification.
- Manufacturing and assembly of electrical equipment.
- Maintenance, repair and refurbishment of electrical installations.
- Protective sleeving for appropriately sized earth conductors.
