Kopp GST18i3 Male to Male Connecting Cable 1.5 mm² 5 m Black

This Kopp connecting cable stands apart from generic power leads by using the GST18i3 connector system, a widely adopted standard in lighting and office furniture installations. Instead of forcing you to hardwire connections, it lets you link components quickly and safely with a simple push-and-lock mechanism. The cable is built for daily use in professional environments where reliability matters more than flashy extras.

Highlights

• Compatible with the GST18i3 plug system for fast, tool-free connections
• Male-to-male configuration links two female GST18i3 ports directly
• 3-core cable with 1.5 mm² conductors handles up to 16 A at 250 V AC
• Robust black PVC jacket resists abrasion and everyday wear
• 5-metre length bridges gaps in lighting rows or workstation clusters
• VDE and CE certified for safe operation in commercial settings

In daily use

Imagine a row of pendant lights above a conference table. Each light has a female GST18i3 socket, and this cable connects them end-to-end without opening junction boxes. The 5 m length gives you flexibility to route along cable trays or through furniture channels. The black jacket blends into dark ceilings or under-desk areas, keeping the installation tidy. Because the connectors are moulded and strain-relieved, repeated plugging and unplugging during reconfiguration won't damage the terminations. The PVC insulation remains flexible even in cooler rooms, so coiling and routing are straightforward.
