cable. If you replace this cable and also use the replacement
cable to supply only one fixture with mains power, the
replacement cable must also be rated 6 A minimum, have three
conductors 18 AWG or 0.75 mm² minimum conductor size,
have an outer cable diameter of 6 - 15 mm (0.2 - 0.6 in.) and be
temperature-rated to suit the application. In the USA and
