Often used in shopping centres, service stations, hair dressers, and other retail stores or outlets. Also used in various many other applications that would benefit from a flexible, cosmetically appealing power cord.
These cords are often used for their “Cosmetic Effect” I.E. to finish off the installation, and make the wiring look neat and tidy.
Important Note: This type of cord is generally considered non self retracting.
In many applications you actually don’t need or want the cords to self retract.
You often want the cord to sit at the designated height.
i.e. You can stretch these cords out, and they will generally sit at the stretched length.
*If you need retractable cords please see our Polyurethane sheathed cords.
These cords must be terminated and installed by a licensed electrician.

In many of these applications these curly power cords are fitted off using a stainless steel wire through the centre of the cords which attaches to the light fixture or the pendant outlet. (particularly the longer length cords)
Note: It is important to not use uncoated wire as this may have an abrasive effect on the cords!
| Plastic Coated Stainless Steel Wire |  |
| Part Number | Description |
| PRO-PC7916 | 1.6mm Stainless Steel Clear Plastic Coated to 2.0mm Wire per m |
| Swages. | |
| PRO-Swage-1.6 | Swage to suit 1.6mm Stainless Steel Wire. Recommended 2 at each end. (4 per cord) Strip Insulation off the wire rope before crimping. |
Unless specifically indicated, all curly cords are supplied UNTERMINATED.
These extended or Drop Lengths, are not set in stone, and due to the nature of the cords, they are somewhat flexible. The longer you extend them out…the more stretched out the cord looks. And with these cords they are used for cosmetic effect. Some people like to work on a 2 to 2.5 time extension as they feel this give a nicer cosmetic effect. This of course is a matter of personal opinion, and ultimately it is up to the installer and client to determine what is best for the particular situation. As a general rule we say up to 3:1 extension ratio.
