Why Choose the Partex HS295EARTH(GRN/YEL) 2:1 Heat Shrink Tubing?
The Partex HS295EARTH(GRN/YEL) is a practical and versatile 2:1 heat shrink tubing designed for protective earth conductor identification, electrical insulation, wire protection and professional cable management. Manufactured by Partex, this green/yellow heat shrink sleeving provides an effective solution for identifying and protecting protective conductors in electrical installations, industrial automation systems, control panels and machinery wiring.
Featuring a 2:1 shrink ratio, the tubing contracts to approximately half its original internal diameter when heated appropriately. This allows it to form a close-fitting protective sleeve around compatible wires, cable insulation and electrical connections. The distinctive green/yellow colour combination is reserved for protective conductor identification under UK and European electrical wiring conventions, helping electricians and maintenance engineers distinguish protective earth connections from other conductors.
With a supplied internal diameter of 9.5 mm and a nominal recovered diameter of 4.7 mm, the HS295EARTH(GRN/YEL) is suitable for compatible medium-diameter conductors, protective bonding connections and earthing cable assemblies. Supplied in a convenient 75 m pack, this green/yellow heat shrink tubing provides a practical bulk solution for electrical contractors, control panel builders, OEM manufacturers and industrial maintenance teams.

Reliable Protective Earth Identification and Cable Protection
Heat shrink tubing such as the Partex HS295EARTH(GRN/YEL) provides a convenient method of identifying and protecting electrical wiring. When suitable heat is applied, the tubing contracts around the conductor or cable insulation, creating a close-fitting sleeve that helps protect against abrasion and handling damage. The 2:1 shrink ratio provides flexibility when selecting tubing for compatible conductor and cable sizes, allowing a secure fit when the correct diameter is chosen.
The green/yellow colour combination is widely recognised as the identification colour for protective earth conductors in UK and European electrical installations. This makes the HS295EARTH(GRN/YEL) particularly useful for marking protective conductors, earthing connections and protective bonding conductors within electrical control panels, distribution equipment and industrial machinery. The generous 75 m supply supports repeated installation tasks and electrical assembly work. The sleeving provides identification and additional protection but does not replace the requirement for a correctly sized, continuous and securely terminated protective conductor.
Typical Applications
- Protective earth conductor identification in electrical installations.
- Industrial control panel wiring and assembly.
- PLC and automation equipment protective earthing systems.
- Identification of protective bonding conductors and earthing connections.
- Protection and identification of compatible medium-diameter earth conductors.
- Electrical distribution boards and equipment wiring.
- OEM machinery wiring and industrial electrical manufacturing.
