Why Choose the Partex PA3-MCC Size E Colour-Coded Chevron Cable Marker?
The Partex PA3-MCC is a practical slide-on, colour-coded chevron cable marker designed for clear identification of larger insulated electrical cables in industrial, commercial and engineering installations. Part of the Partex PA3 cable marking range, this Size E marker provides a convenient method of identifying conductors in electrical control panels, machinery, switchgear and power distribution equipment.
Designed for cables with an outside diameter of 8.0–16.0 mm, the PA3-MCC is suitable for larger insulated conductors where smaller slide-on markers may not provide an appropriate fit. Its chevron-style construction supports neat, consistent identification, while the colour-coded format helps distinguish conductors and identification references within complex wiring systems.
The Partex PA3-MCC is supplied as a loose multipack, providing a convenient format for electrical contractors, panel builders, maintenance engineers and equipment manufacturers carrying out repetitive cable marking tasks. Its slide-on installation method eliminates the need for adhesive labels, making it a useful choice for projects requiring organised, easily identifiable wiring.

Colour-Coded Identification for Larger Industrial Cables
Accurate cable identification is essential for maintaining organised electrical installations and supporting efficient inspection, maintenance and fault-finding. The Partex PA3-MCC Size E colour-coded cable marker provides a practical solution for identifying insulated conductors with outside diameters between 8.0 mm and 16.0 mm. Its colour-coded format helps technicians distinguish identification references and locate the correct conductors within larger wiring assemblies.
The slide-on design allows the marker to be fitted over an accessible cable end and moved into its required identification position. Installation is generally most convenient before the cable is terminated. Unlike adhesive labels, slide-on markers are positioned directly around the cable insulation, making correct size selection important for achieving an appropriate fit.
The specified 8.0–16.0 mm cable diameter range refers to the overall outside diameter of the insulated cable, not the conductor's nominal cross-sectional area. Installers should measure the cable insulation and confirm that it falls within the stated range before fitting the marker. The colour-coded marking arrangement should also be matched to the project's identification schedule, as colour meanings can differ between installations.
Supplied as a loose multipack, the PA3-MCC is convenient for projects involving repeated identification of larger cables. Its chevron-style format supports consistent marking across industrial machinery, control cabinets and electrical distribution systems.
