Our spaces need safety as much as we need the aesthetically beautiful interiors. Choosing the appropriate wire involves various aspects that needs to be considered, so you always end up in making the right decision.
At Fybros Electricals, we are always determined to bring you the best of our electrical creations that not only stands par with excellence but also ensures the safety & reliability of our products too.
Here is a quick guide of some significant aspects that you can consider while buying the best electrical wire for your residential & commercial spaces.
- Assessing the electrical needs: First of all determine the wiring needs to be fulfilled such as the kind of electrical equipment, lighting fixtures or any other special requirement if you have.
- Checking local regulations: Apprise yourself with the local electrical codes & protocols to ensure that the wires you choose meets the required standards and ensure safety compliances too.
- Wire Gauze (Size): The wire gauge refers to the thickness of the wire. Always ensure your requirements beforehand where the wire would be exactly used for. Like, heavy appliances will require thick wires of lower gauge numbers and smaller appliances you will need thin wires with high gauge numbers.
- Ensure Quality Material: Needless to say, copper wires are the most safer & efficient wires as they are the better conductor of electricity. At Fybros our all the wires are designed with the high-quality copper material only.
- Insulation type: Insulation plays a key role in preventing the electrical hazards. Choose the insulation as per the required surroundings where the wire installation is to be done. For eg. Indoors require thermoplastic insulation (PVC). ereas Thermoset insulation is good for indoors and outdoors both.
- Wires Colors: Well this goes a long way. If you’re looking for the three phases then choose the red, yellow & blue color wires. For earthing, go for the green one and Black is typically used for neutral wires, and in the case of multiphase systems, black, gray, and white can all be used as neutral wires. The structured colored insulation helps you to make the networking area more organized.
- Fire-resistance concerns: These specifically engineered flame retardant wires are developed to slow down the spread of fire in case of any short circuit or breakdown. Fybros FR wires for home withstand the test of times and gives you safer spaces. Fybros FR wires retain minimum oxygen index of 29% with minimum temperature index of 250* Celsius at 21% oxygen.
- Wire flexibility: Flexible wires are always better than the solid selecting quality wires. The installation is smoother with the flexible wires as it bends and shapes easily as required.
- Voltage requirements: Different electrical devices have different voltage requirements. So it becomes quintessential to select the electric wires with suitable voltage rating to ensure safety & efficiency of the product.
- Cost & Quality: Always ensure the quality and credibility of the product and the reputation of the brand matters the most, as the stronger the foundations of the brand, more authentic the products will be. So choose wisely!
- Wires class segmentation: Each class of wire has its own specific properties to ensure their different requirements.
- Class 1 wire: These wires are single insulated wires used for basic requirements in household wiring, lighting fixtures and small appliances. Generally used in CO-AXIAL & VIR cables.
- Class 2 wire: These are low-voltage wires used for low-power applications like doorbells or any thermostat wiring. These are more flexible and used in FR & ZHFR domestic/industrial cables.
- Class 5 wire: These are strong & ultra-flexible copper conductors that comprise of multiple thin strands of copper wire twisted together, providing enough flexibility to bend them as per the required application like for power cords or extension cords. Used for UFFR domestic/industrial cables.
By keeping a tap on above crucial aspects we can make a wise decision to choose the best wires for homes and commercial wiring needs.
