What is Building Wire

Building wire and cable, a group of insulated electrical conductors (usually copper) bundled together and often encased in a protective sheath. Carries electrical current from the primary power source to individual circuits throughout a building. Powers outlets, lights, appliances, and electrical systems. It is vital in ensuring electrical equipment’s safe and reliable operation.

Types of Building Wire and Cable

Like elsewhere, different types of building wires in Pakistan cater to diverse applications and environments. Let’s explore some common uses and their corresponding wire specifications

1. PVC Insulated Wires

These are the most widely used wires in Pakistan. They feature high-quality copper conductors with a PVC (polyvinyl chloride) insulation layer. PVC offers excellent insulation properties and durability. Ideal for internal wiring in houses, offices, and various buildings.

2. XLPE Insulated Wires

XLPE (cross-linked polyethylene) is a superior insulation material offering higher temperature resistance, better moisture resistance, and improved durability compared to standard PVC. Ideal for heavy-duty wiring, industrial settings, and underground installations.

3. Coaxial Cables (RJ-6/RJ-7)

Coaxial cables come in two grades: RJ-6 and RJ-7. RJ-6 provides better signal transmission, making it ideal for cable TV, satellite dishes, internet connections, and CCTV systems. Designed for telephone systems and intercom systems within buildings.

General Specifications of Building Wire

  1. Wire Size: Consult our electrician for proper sizing based on your specific requirements. But normally, it is AWG 1.5mm² for low and 6mm² for high temperatures.
  2. Insulation: PVC for dry/damp, XLPE for high temperatures
  3. Conductor: Copper is the preferred conductor for conductivity, but aluminium may be used in specific cases.
  4. Quality Standards: Certified by Pakistan Standards and Quality Control Authority (PSQCA)

FAQs

The cost of Building wire prices in Pakistan can vary depending on several factors, including wire type and size, brand and quality, and Location.

The most common types include PVC insulated wires (THHN, THW), XLPE insulated wires for high temperatures, and FEP/PTFE insulated cables for specialized applications.

Building wire is available from electrical stores, distributors, and online retailers like Long Age Cables, Pakistan Cables, Green Cables, and more.

A mix of PVC and XLPE cables is used depending on the application. XLPE is preferred for high-load areas like elevators and kitchens.

Due to their heat resistance and fire retardancy, Heavy-duty XLPE or FEP/PTFE cables are used for machinery, motors, and control systems.
