OEX ACX0761L 6mm Single Core Automotive Cable Black 100m Roll

OEX ACX0761L Australian Made 6mm Single Core Automotive Cable Black 100m Roll OFHC Copper 30A V90

The OEX ACX0761L is a 6mm single core automotive cable in black, supplied on a 100m roll. Manufactured in Australia from oxygen free high conductivity (OFHC) copper, it features a 4.59mm² conductor cross-section and a 30A continuous rating at 30°C, a significant step up from the 5mm range and suited to high-demand circuits including winch feeds, heavy accessory wiring, dual battery runs and other applications requiring substantial current-carrying capacity. The black PVC insulation is UV stabilised and rated to V90 (90°C). Compliant with AS/NZS 3808:2000 and RoHS.

Product overview

The ACX0761L steps up from the OEX 5mm range with a larger 4.59mm² (11AWG) conductor cross-section and a 30A continuous rating, suited to circuits where the 5mm 20A-rated cable would be undersized. Typical applications include winch and recovery equipment power feeds, dual battery and auxiliary battery wiring runs, high-current relay and accessory circuits, trailer and caravan main supply feeds, and general 12V and 24V wiring drawing up to 30A. The 65-strand conductor construction provides excellent flexibility for routing through tight spaces and around bends despite the larger gauge, with significantly more strands than the 41-strand 5mm cable.

The UV stabilised V90 PVC insulation handles continuous operating temperatures up to 90°C for underbonnet and outdoor-exposed installations. Compliance with AS/NZS 3808:2000 confirms the cable meets defined requirements for conductor construction, insulation properties and performance under the Australian and New Zealand standard for cables used in the internal wiring of equipment. The 100m roll suits workshops and trade installers covering multiple jobs from a single roll.

Features and benefits

OFHC copper conductor: Oxygen free high conductivity copper minimises resistance and signal loss across the cable run, maintaining reliable electrical performance in high-current automotive and marine applications.

Australian owned and made: Premium quality copper cable produced locally to Australian automotive wiring standards.

30A rated at 30°C: A significant step up from the 5mm range, suited to winch feeds, dual battery runs, high-current relay circuits and heavy accessory wiring in 12V and 24V systems drawing up to 30A.

UV stabilised PVC insulation: Resists degradation in sun-exposed and underbonnet environments.

V90 temperature rating: PVC insulation rated for continuous operation at up to 90°C, the standard automotive-grade insulation specification in Australia.

65-strand construction: The 65-strand conductor provides excellent flexibility and resistance to fatigue during installation and in service, maintaining good routing flexibility despite the larger cable gauge.

AS/NZS 3808:2000 compliant: Meets the Australian and New Zealand standard for insulated conductors and cables for internal wiring of equipment.

RoHS compliant: Meets hazardous substance restrictions.

100m roll: Trade-length supply for workshops and fleet installers covering multiple jobs from a single roll.

Technical specs

Frequently asked questions

How does 6mm cable compare to the smaller sizes in the OEX range? The 6mm cable has a larger conductor cross-section (4.59mm²) and higher amp rating (30A at 30°C) than the 5mm (2.9mm², 20A), 4mm (1.84mm², 15A), 3mm (1.13mm², 10A) and 2mm (0.5mm², 5A) cables. Select the 6mm where circuits draw up to 30A, such as winch feeds, dual battery runs and high-draw accessory wiring that would exceed the capacity of the 5mm range.

What is the amp rating for this cable? This cable is rated at 30A continuous at 30°C. Ampacity decreases as ambient temperature rises, so applications in high-heat environments such as underbonnet installations should be assessed against the expected operating temperature before use.

What does V90 mean? V90 is the Australian cable insulation classification indicating the PVC insulation is rated for continuous operation at up to 90°C. It is the standard specification for automotive-grade PVC insulated cable in Australia and confirms suitability for underbonnet and outdoor-exposed installation positions.

What does AS/NZS 3808:2000 compliance mean? AS/NZS 3808:2000 is the Australian and New Zealand standard covering insulated conductors and cables for internal wiring of equipment. Compliance confirms the cable meets defined requirements for conductor construction, insulation properties and performance.
