What Is Building Wire Used For?
-
Powering outlets, switches, and lighting systems. -
Distributing electricity in residential, commercial, and industrial buildings. -
Connecting electrical panels to circuits and sub-circuits. -
Supporting fixed installations where flexibility is not a priority, such as in conduits, walls, and ceilings.
Difference Between Building Wire and PVC Insulated Cable
-
Application Specificity: -
Building wire is engineered for permanent, fixed installations within structures. -
PVC insulated cables may serve broader purposes, including temporary setups or external applications.
-
-
Standards and Certification: -
Building wire often adheres to strict standards (e.g., SAA certification) for safety and performance in construction. -
Generic PVC insulated cables might not meet the same rigorous requirements for building use.
-
-
Insulation Quality: -
Building wire features premium insulation like V-90, which offers higher thermal resistance (90°C rating) compared to standard PVC insulation.
-
-
Conductor Material: -
Building wire typically uses pure copper for optimal conductivity and efficiency, whereas other cables may use alternative materials.
-
Why Choose SAA Certified Double Insulated SDI Cable?
-
Pure Copper Conductors: Superior conductivity and minimal energy loss. -
V-90 Insulation: Heat resistance up to 90°C, ensuring safety in demanding condition. -
SAA Certification: Guaranteed compliance with Australian regulations.
