flex for vacuum cleaner

[musicspark]

hi folks

I have been asked to change the flex on a vacuum cleaner. can someone recommend the best flex for this purpose?

I would have thought 0.75mm CSA would be adequate for current carrying capacity but, considering it is going to be wound and unwound on a daily basis, what would be the most cost effective and durable for this purpose?

If you use standard 3182Y I believe it will be at least as good as the original.
