Why Choose the Partex HS2762EARTH(GRN/YEL) 2:1 Heat Shrink Tubing?
The Partex HS2762EARTH(GRN/YEL) is a professional 2:1 green/yellow heat shrink tubing designed for protective earth conductor identification, electrical insulation, cable protection and organised electrical installations. Manufactured by Partex, this green and yellow heat shrink sleeving provides a practical solution for identifying and protecting appropriately designated earthing conductors, larger insulated cables and electrical connections in industrial automation systems, control panels and electrical distribution equipment.
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 sleeve around compatible cables and conductors. The distinctive green/yellow colour combination is used for protective earth identification under applicable UK and European wiring conventions, helping electricians, panel builders and maintenance engineers recognise protective conductors within electrical installations.
With a supplied internal diameter of 76.2 mm and a nominal recovered diameter of 38.1 mm, the HS2762EARTH(GRN/YEL) is suitable for compatible larger-diameter earthing conductors, insulated cables and cable assemblies. Supplied in a convenient 15 m pack, this green/yellow heat shrink tubing offers a practical solution for electrical contractors, industrial control panel manufacturers, OEM equipment builders and electrical maintenance teams.

Reliable Electrical Insulation and Protective Earth Conductor Identification
Heat shrink tubing such as the Partex HS2762EARTH(GRN/YEL) provides a convenient method of identifying and protecting electrical conductors. When suitable heat is applied, the tubing contracts around the cable or component, 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 sizes. For effective installation, the tubing must be large enough to pass over the application before shrinking while having sufficient recovery to grip the finished assembly.
The green/yellow finish is particularly important in electrical installations because this colour combination is reserved for protective conductor identification under applicable UK and harmonised European wiring conventions. The HS2762EARTH(GRN/YEL) can therefore assist with identifying appropriately designated protective earth conductors in industrial machinery, control panels, distribution equipment and electrical installations. It should not be used to identify live, neutral or other conductors where the green/yellow combination would conflict with the applicable wiring standards.
With its larger 76.2 mm supplied internal diameter, this tubing is a practical option for compatible larger-diameter protective conductor assemblies and insulated earthing cables. The 15 m pack supports repeated installation and maintenance tasks where consistent conductor identification is required. The tubing provides an identification and protective covering; it does not create an electrical earth connection or replace the need for correctly sized, connected and tested protective conductors.
Typical Applications
- Protective earth conductor identification in electrical installations.
- Green/yellow identification of compatible insulated earthing cables.
- Industrial control panel assembly and protective conductor marking.
- Electrical distribution equipment and earthing system identification.
- Industrial machinery and automation equipment protective conductor identification.
- Protection of compatible larger-diameter insulated earthing conductors.
- OEM electrical equipment manufacturing and maintenance.
- Electrical refurbishment and conductor identification work.
