Orange 2 core flex

jumbone

Hi

I want to make a homemade lamp from a bottle but I would like to use orange flex (the sort you'd see on tools usually) but I assume that any of these power cords would be T+E and i'd prefer just twin as a lamp shouldn't need and earth (its a glass bottle and i'll be using a plastic bulb holder).

Is it possible to get orange 2 core flex? would b&q/woodies have it or should I go somewhere that supplies to the trade?

Also, is there any chance at all I'd be able to get an orange torpedo switch?

If I can't get any, would I be safe enough using t+e? Or if i can get that should i use a metal bulb holder and just earth it?



its a jagermeister bottle btw in case your wondering why I want orange flex :P

Use 3 core and just snip off and don't terminate the earth core....
