Flame Retardant Low Smoke (FRLS) PVC Insulated Wires for Building wiring .

Copper conductor PVC Insulated PVC Insulated wires are extensively used in residential and commercial buildings for power distribution. They are used on metal/plastic conduits either embedded in plaster ( Cconcealed wiring) or fixed on the walls.

In fifties, the use of electricity in household was limited to lighting during night hours and hence concessions were offered to houlsehold to use electricity during day hours in domestic tariffs.

Today the scene has changed, a modern household has Air Conditioner, Geyser, Refrigerator, Vacuum Cleaner, Oven, Washing Machine, Kitchen Machine, Hair Drier etc. The combined connected load of the above appliances works out to be about 10 KW (14 H.P). A modern office has connected load of 5 kW per 100 Sq.Ft. of area. This concentraton of load has increased the risk of fire due to short circuit. Today 90% of the fires are atributed to electric short circuit and hence due care should be taken in selection and installation of electric cables.

PVC is a widely accepted insulating material for building wires due to its better abrasive and chemical resistance, weatherproof, electrical and fire retardant properties.
