The 300/500V Solid Copper Conductor Household Wire is a premium electrical wiring solution designed for safe and reliable power distribution in residential and light commercial applications. Constructed with a single, solid copper conductor at its core, this wire offers excellent electrical conductivity, ensuring minimal power loss and consistent performance in low-voltage systems. The conductor is insulated with high-quality thermoplastic PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride) or cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE), providing superior thermal resistance, flame retardancy, and mechanical protection.
Rated for voltage levels of 300V (conductor to ground) and 500V (conductor to conductor), this wire complies with international standards such as IEC 60227 and national electrical codes, making it suitable for use in homes, apartments, offices, and small commercial buildings. The solid conductor design offers rigidity for easy installation in conduit or trunking, while the smooth insulation surface facilitates pulling through tight spaces without damage.
Superior Conductivity: The 99.99% pure copper conductor ensures low electrical resistance, reducing heat generation and improving energy efficiency compared to aluminum alternatives.
Enhanced Safety: The flame-retardant insulation meets strict fire safety standards, self-extinguishing quickly in case of exposure to flames. It also resists moisture, chemicals, and abrasion, minimizing the risk of short circuits or electrical faults.
Thermal Stability: PVC insulation operates safely at temperatures up to 70°C, while XLPE options can withstand up to 90°C, making it suitable for areas with high ambient heat, such as attics or behind walls.
Easy Installation: The solid conductor holds its shape during routing, making it ideal for fixed installations in walls, ceilings, and floors. Color-coded insulation (e.g., brown, blue, green/yellow) simplifies proper phase and grounding identification.
Compliance & Certification: Certified to meet IEC, UL, and local electrical codes, ensuring compatibility with global residential wiring standards and passing rigorous tests for insulation thickness, tensile strength, and electrical performance.
Residential Wiring: Used for permanent electrical installations in homes, including lighting circuits, power outlets, and appliance connections.
Commercial Buildings: Suitable for offices, shops, and small commercial spaces requiring reliable low-voltage power distribution.
Renovation Projects: Easily replaces outdated wiring in older homes, improving safety and system efficiency.
Appliance Connections: Connects household appliances such as refrigerators, ovens, and air conditioners to the main electrical panel.
Lighting Systems: Powers indoor and outdoor lighting fixtures, including chandeliers, recessed lights, and garden lamps.
Q: What is the maximum current rating for different wire gauges?
A: Current ratings depend on gauge size (e.g., 1.5mm² supports up to 19A, 2.5mm² up to 27A), as specified in the product datasheet and local electrical codes.
Q: Is the insulation lead-free and safe for indoor use?
A: Yes, the insulation is made from lead-free, halogen-free materials, ensuring compliance with environmental and health standards for residential applications.
Q: Can the solid conductor be bent repeatedly without breaking?
A: While solid wire is stiffer than stranded wire, it is designed for fixed installations and should be bent carefully during initial routing to avoid metal fatigue.
Q: What is the recommended method for connecting multiple wires?
A: Use approved wire connectors (e.g., twist-on caps or crimp connectors) and ensure connections are properly insulated to meet safety standards.
