Heat Resistance Flame Retardant

Current carrying capacity of a wire is defined as how much load a conductor can carry (In amperage). When the current flows through the conductor a certain level of heat generates which can further increase up to the melting temperature of the insulation or insulating material. Havells wires offer insulation with (HR) Heat resistant along with Flame Retardant properties which are suitable to bear a temperature up to 85 °C whereas ordinary PVC is suitable only up to 70 °C and due to this feature HAVELLS Wires are capable to carry Higher current and ensures better electrical and mechanical performance at higher temperatures. The HRFR property is available from 0.5 sq. mm to 630 sq. mm in single core.

High Insulation Resistance

In all cables, there is generally leakage of current from the live conductor through the insulation. In case of inferior quality of insulation, the current leakage increases. This is unsafe and can cause damage to installations as well as become a threat to life. Low Leakage Current – Havells wires have an allowable current-leakage limit that is 50 times lower than the prescribed international safety norms. safety standards specifies that current leakage limit in hand held equipment is considered to be safe if the value is not more than 0.75 mA. Havells cables, with S3 technology, incorporate insulation of high quality which ensures that current leakage level is as low as 0.01 mA, which is much below the prescribed limit. Havells cables have been certified by the Central Power and Research Institute (CPRI) - a premier laboratory recognised by the Government of India. Safety from electrical shocks – Electric shock occurs when a body-part comes in contact with a bare conductor of poor insulated wire. Higher insulation resistance protects against electric shock.

RoHS Compliant

Release of certain harmful substances such as lead, mercury, cadmium and chromium etc. in the plastics/equipment are dangerous to the environment and health. European Union has adopted a directive on the restriction of the use of certain hazardous substances in electrical and electronics equipment commonly referred to as Restriction of Hazardous Substances directive or RoHS. cables with S3 technology are certified by Bureau Veritas for RoHS compliance as per directive 2006/95/EC. This ensures that release of hazardous substances are eliminated to provide safety for human health and to give us green environment. initiative for eco friendly environment by Havells.

Anti Termite and Rodent

Termites and rodents cause extensive damage to paper, wood, plastic etc. In case of electrical installation, damaged caused by above pests may lead to short circuit which can become a cause for a major disaster, loss of property and human life. Havells cables with S3 technology provide insulation with termite and rodent repulsion properties. Certification regarding the above has been obtained from the Central Power and Research Institute (CPRI). Anti termite/Anti rodent feature is applicable for a period of 12 months from the date of invoice.

Best Copper Used

Havells wire use ETP grade annealed copper which is more than 99.95% pure and therefore ensures 101% conductivity (IACS).

Which house wire gives the best value for money?

Value for money means the most safety and quality per rupee, not the lowest price. Premium e-beam (EBXL) and HR FR-LSH grades like APAR Anushakti and Polycab Maxima+ Green Wire top our list because they deliver low-smoke, heat-resistant fire safety at a per-metre price close to standard FR wire, helped by deep discounts off MRP on Elume. For tight budgets on standard circuits, RR Kabel Superex FR is the lowest cost per metre from a trusted brand.

What is the difference between FR and FRLS house wires?

FR (Flame Retardant) insulation resists catching fire and slows flame spread. FRLS (Flame Retardant Low Smoke) does the same but also emits far less smoke and corrosive halogen gas when exposed to fire. For enclosed homes, apartments and commercial spaces, FRLS is the safer choice because reduced smoke gives occupants more time to escape.

Which gauge wire should I use for an AC or geyser?

For most household geysers and 1 to 1.5 ton split ACs, 4 sq mm copper wire is the standard, safe choice. Larger 2 ton or higher ACs and the main incoming run usually need 6 sq mm. Always size for the appliance's actual load and run length, and consult your electrician for long cable runs where voltage drop matters.
