    Hey, as the title suggests Im looking for a good supplier of electrical wire
    Right now I need about 15-20m of 6mm2 TWE
    I usually just go to B&Q but :
    a) they dont have longer than 10m
    b) I reckon they are more expensive for things like this

    so, Im based in knocklyon so somewhere near there (thats open on a Saturday) would be great!

    cheers.

    You will get it in Harkness Bros at the top of Ballymount Road near the Red Cow roundabout. They're open till lunchtime on Saturdays.

    You would get it in T O'Reillys on Belgard Road as well.
    Harkness are down at the Red Cow, you've probably seen their horrible christmas lights on the aerial. On again soon, I imagine.

    cool thanks!
    Will these places sell prepackaged stuff or will they cut me off as much as I want?

    I never thought of Emerald, good idea.
    They will all cut what you want.

    Your best bet is T. O'Reilly Electrical in Inchicore.

    Got it in Emerald, well actually I sent the little woman down
    They looked at her funny until she was able to specify exactly what she wanted :)

    Cheers!
