You can get it in black. Cable prices have gone up dramatically lately, almost double due to the rise in copper prices.

Not sure what's around you but my local Bursons stocks 00B&S at least, maybe if you make a few calls you won't need to buy a whole roll.

got some prices today, cheapest so far

00 or 2/0 or 65mm^2 cable current cap 430 amp $12.80 p/m black

000 or 3/0 or 85mm^2 cable current cap 370 amp $15.90 p/m black

it has gone up heaps in price, though last time i was looking the best price i could get was $13.75 p/m from an electrical wholesaler for 70mm^2 cable so these prices arent comparatively that bad.


Havent got into contact with blackwood/boc yet
