Why Choose the Partex ECHS2381EARTH(GRN/YEL) 2:1 Green/Yellow Heat Shrink Tubing?
The Partex ECHS2381EARTH(GRN/YEL) is a practical and versatile 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 38.1 mm before shrinking and 19 mm after shrinking, this tubing provides an effective solution for identifying and protecting suitable earthing conductors, larger cable connections and electrical wiring assemblies.
As part of the Partex ECHS heat shrink tubing range, the ECHS2381EARTH(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 30 m pack, the ECHS2381EARTH(GRN/YEL) is particularly suitable for electrical contractors, industrial panel builders and OEM equipment manufacturers requiring consistent protective earth conductor identification. Its 38.1 mm supplied diameter and 19 mm recovered diameter make it suitable for larger compatible conductor sizes, protective bonding connections and electrical wiring assemblies.
Key Advantages
- 2:1 heat shrink ratio provides effective diameter reduction for close-fitting conductor identification and protection.
- 38.1 mm supplied diameter reduces to approximately 19 mm after unrestricted shrinking.

Reliable Protective Earth Identification for Industrial Electrical Systems
Protective earth conductors play an essential role in electrical safety by connecting exposed conductive parts of equipment to 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 protective conductor identification in accordance with applicable electrical wiring standards.
The Partex ECHS2381EARTH(GRN/YEL) combines a practical 2:1 shrink ratio with distinctive green/yellow colouring, making it particularly useful for larger protective earth conductors and bonding connections within industrial control cabinets, switchgear assemblies, electrical distribution equipment and machinery wiring systems. When heated evenly, the tubing contracts around a compatible conductor or 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 30 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, helping maintain consistent identification throughout electrical installations. The correct size should be selected to ensure adequate clearance before shrinking and a suitable recovered diameter, while the completed installation must comply with applicable electrical safety and protective conductor identification requirements.
Typical Applications
- Protective earth conductor identification in electrical installations.
- Green/yellow sleeving for larger 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.
